Interesting.

My freshly-updated Ubuntu 8.04 is running 2.6.24.  I seem to have -16,
-17, -18, and -19 in /boot.

My freshly-updated Fedora 9 has only 2.6.25 kernels in /boot.

On Ubuntu 8.04, I'm experiencing a problem that might be related to
support for Intel chipsets.  I have not tried Fedora 9 on the same
machine:

This might be the same issue as:
