I want to see if I can find the proceedings from OLS and Greg K-H's talk on just using recent kernels for enterprise releases. udev has been the biggest reason why it's not possible to update, say, Ubuntu Dapper to 2.6.22 without pain. I'd like to see how he addresses that.

Um, what talk about enterprise releases and recent kernels?

I don't remember giving such a talk this year...

Look at openSUSE, it seems to do the right thing. I have run 2.6.20.2, 2.6.20.15 and 2.6.22.1 successfully, without any udev-related problems. Your distro might suffer from the same as http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/7/20/524 .
