Yes, that seems to be the (stony) way to go. I've tried 2.6.14
(failed), 2.6.13 (failed) and 2.6.13-rc1 (guess what... right,
failed). The failure war different from the one I got with the 2.6.15
kernel but for all the versions 2.6.13-rc1 - 2.6.14 it was the same
bluescreen saying "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" followed by a reboot
of my machine 8-/ 

The patch I've used can be found here:
  http://www.minet.uni-jena.de/~gentryx/linux-2.6.13-rc1.diff.gz

From the other side I've tried the kernels from 2.6.12 up to
2.6.12.6. Those are pretty unproblematic and are running smoothly. 

So two questions remain:
  a) What might cause the BSOD?
  b) How can we narrow in the problem arising when switching from
     2.6.12.6 to 2.6.13-rc1? Are there official versions between them?
     And who wrote the 2.6.12-patch? Maybe he knows...
