kernel images

I have enjoyed playing with Beagle, the only slight pita, was having to
recompile the kernel with the inotify patch, and if you use Reiserfs,
set extended attributes in the kernel config for that fs.
Ext3 has extended attributes already set in stock Ubuntu kernel images,
since inotify is now included in recent hoary kernel images, if you are
using ext3, a custom kernel does not have to be built.
Pity us poor Reiserfs users who would like to use stock kernel images
with beagle, and not have to recompile just to set that one flag. If it
will not introduce some kind of catastrophe, could extended attributes
please be set for Reiserfs in the hoary kernel images in future?, this
would be most appreciated by myself and I'm sure many others.
Regards, Max
