Have you looked at the kernel source? Can you make heads or tails of it? How long do *you* think it would take, based on your progression so far? Some of that stuff (memory management) makes Linus' eyes cross. As for writing apps, consider looking into wxwindows, FLTK, and Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL), libraries which may help. SDL is at http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Creating_a_Window I think. They can all be found in Debian repositories and google. I *think* I like SDL the most from what I've seen, but your goals may/will differ. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
