Here's what I did.

[lappy]~# history | grep 386
~  387  sudo apt-get remove linux-386
~  389  sudo apt-get remove linux-headers-2.6.8.1-3-386
~  394  sudo apt-get remove lufs-module-2.6.8.1-3-386
~  501  h | grep 386

I had to recompile that lufs module for 686. But that was it. 686 works
a lot faster. I was suprised by how much.
