You'll need to get the new "module-init-tools" from here: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rusty/modules/ Usual ./configure && make business. Make sure you do "make moveold" before installing tho; this will back up your existing modutils to /sbin/whatever.old. It won't install the programs unless you do this tho so you're quite safe :) The input stuff has changed around a bit so you'll probably want to look through the "Input device support" section in the config. I'd recommend enabling "Provide legacy /dev/psaux device" if you're using X, and also "PC Speaker support" under "Misc" if you want your beeps :) A while back, the serial port wasn't enabled by default (at least for me) so I'd check under "Character devices" -> "Serial drivers". You'll probably also want to enable "Preemptible Kernel" under "Processor type and features". And, of course, you'll also want to explore "Advanced Linux Sound Architecture" under "Sound" hehe :) Have fun :) Bob -- Bob Ham <rah(a)bash.sh>
