slackware 3.6 claims to be 2.1/2.2 ready and includes binutils 2.8.1.0.23
(I don't know what ver of pppd it includes as I didn't install is being on
a cable modem). It also includes libc5 (default) and glibc6, both gcc2.7
and egcs (defaults to gcc for c progs and egcs for c++ progs to avoid
kernel compile problems). I have been running it with both late 2.0
kernels and late 2.1 kernels on several machines with no problems

"If users are made to understand that the system administrator's job is to
make computers run, and not to make them happy, they can, in fact, be made
happy most of the time. If users are allowed to believe that the system
administrator's job is to make them happy, they can, in fact, never be made
happy."
