FWIW, I've been using ns 4.78 since August 20 on the listed kernels with no noticable change. All kernels have Andre's IDE patch.
If you have a specific test script I can give it a run.
2.2.19pre17, 2.2.20pre{6,9,10} XFree86-3.3.6-29 (SVGA driver) ide.2.2.19.05042001.patch communicator-v478-us.x86-unknown-linux2.2.tgz
System is Athlon 850 (CONFIG_M686=y) on an Abit KA7.
