I don't know man, while using Ubuntu I had the feeling that compiling your own optimized kernel was being made harder for people who want to, and never managed to successfully compile a working kernel, even though I had routinely done that during my earlier experiences with Fedora and Slackware, and I don't know why.
That was one of a few reasons why I went back to Slackware. This stuff
just works, and I'm very happy that I have no barriers to stop me doing it when I want to. The stock kernel is already very good, and I wouldn't be arsed to try and improve it if I didn't have enough time on my hands.
