I am thinking that I might upgrade my kernel to 2.4 from 2.2.18. Is this a good idea? are there any major problems I should watch out for?

You should grab Message-ID slrn90o436.pkl.mjg59@cavan.jesus.cam.ac.uk from uk.comp.os.linux, probably on http://groups.google.com/ or I can email it you. I don't think I've heard nasties about 2.4.4 yet, but earlier ones have serious gotchas.
