Re: kernel building HOW?

2001-02-26 Thread Christopher Abbey
If you're going to use rpm to do it then you want to get the spec file from /usr/src/redhat/SPECS and build it with some varient of rpm -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/theSpecIWant. See the RPM docs on how to rebuild an rpm from an srpm... it's not exactly the same as building from a tarball ;) You'll

SDL depending on KDE?

2001-02-26 Thread Svante Signell
