I am downloading the linux-headers-nnn package as I type, and it is also pulling down linux-kbuild-nnn as well. I am on the netbook just now & I am not sure how much extra in the way of compilers and dev packages I will need. I may transfer to a proper desktop for the compilation if it gets too heavy. > Let me know if you run into problems.

I will have a quick attempt tonight, but may have to leave things to at least tomorrow if there are any complications. I too am very interested to see what happens... ael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
