'opkg list_installed | grep kernel' gives a lot of packages.  most
have the version:

3:2.6.24+gitr76014+fb42ce6724576fc173faf8abfb04aa2c36d213b7-r2.01

however, there is one that is different, and that would be:

kernel-module-usbhid -
3:2.6.24+gitr75986+f5b973489beb1a1239dfad53e3ad6e36ff7ee958-r2

i have 3 packages that look like actual kernel packages.  i think a
couple of them might be meta packages but they are:

kernel - 3:2.6.24+gitr76014+fb42ce6724576fc173faf8abfb04aa2c36d213b7-r2.01
kernel-2.6.24 -
3:2.6.24+gitr76014+fb42ce6724576fc173faf8abfb04aa2c36d213b7-r2.01
kernel-image-2.6.24 -
3:2.6.24+gitr76014+fb42ce6724576fc173faf8abfb04aa2c36d213b7-r2.01

they all look the same to me as far as version is concerned.  i hope that helps.

i'm not sure how to turn on framebuffer blanking but i will do some
research and use that for a bit and report back; however, i have used
other distros where frameblanking was the norm and never had wsod.  i
only get wsod after a resume.
