I was going to object to this change, but, having tried to think of a
few different ways of expressing this, I've come to the conclusion that
the whole paragraph is redundant.  Users running 2.1 will need to
re-configure the kernel regardless, and most 2.2 users can just load
the LKM without touching the kernel; if that doesn't work for them,
they also will have to re-config the kernel.  Therefore, no-one
actually needs to test if their kernel has Linux support.

Apart from that, it looks fine.  Thanks for doing this!

James
