For recompiling the kernel, you need to have the kernel package and kernel source installed, I think -- you can do this with dselect.
Then, take a look at the FAQMatic on the Debian web site under Installation, to see how to build a new kernel. The instructions there are clearer than the others I've read.

I should be able to use Wordview to view Word docs....right. Someone said that I need to have fat/vfat compiled into the kernel.....how do I do this?????? Also, what would be the X equivilant of a win95: shortcut folder scandisk I would like to customize X more but can't figure out exactly how. Is it all done from the xterm that it opens when I start. BTW, where is the file that I edit to change things such as my default window manager and background color??? Thanks again -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
