Good move: 2.6.x.

Can't help you with the distrib. I use Debian only.
But why not a later kernel and Faketty?

I revisited 2.6.9-ruby.vz11 again and that kernel is
"sticky" compared to what I run now (2.6.14-ck6). Also
evdev is not as clean.

Ruby would buy you fbcons if you ran Matrox cards, but
not with those MX-440's so it adds nothing.

Just my 2 cents.
