Hi Timi,

To give advice we really need to know what you are trying to do. 

However here are a few links to sites I found useful when figuring out how to 
use QOS on linux. Ignore what you were told, most of the things you will read 
apply to both 2.4 and 2.6. If its a specific program like WRR that only has 
patches for 2.2 and 2.4, look harder because their are patches for 2.6 :)

If your just shaping your network to improve performance look at wondershaper
http://lartc.org/wondershaper/

If you want to share bandwidth equally amongst X machines where X isn''t
really
known, try WRR http://wipl-wrr.sourceforge.net/ Kern 2.6 patch available here 
http://www.zz9.dk/wrr and here http://kem.p.lodz.pl/%7Epeter/qnet/

If you want to do specific shaping for specific services there are about 11 
different linux queuing methods to pick from, most here advise using HTB 
http://luxik.cdi.cz/%7Edevik/qos/htb/

A ready made script to use HTB on your server HTB.init
http://sourceforge.net/projects/htbinit/

Three other pages I found useful in learning wtf was going on.
