That's not entirely true. This is partially Debian's fault, since recently sid switched over to gcc 3.2 as the default compiler. However, Qt is still compiled with the older compiler. You can always use menuconfig or you can use the gcc 2.95 compiler for xconfig. For some reason, the new xconfig method in 2.5 is now built using Qt, though there is a GTK alternative which I have never once used. This problem will not affect the other methods of configuring, including menuconfig and config. I would reccommend that you at least have a thorough understanding of how to build a 2.4 kernel, and if you do have that, then if you want to take the plunge, go in and read all those nifty little help texts in the kernel configurator. They help. :) (someone correct me if I'm wrong.) -- Scott C. Linnenbringer sl at eskimo dot com sclb at mac dot com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
