If so you should start now. Mr. Schweers had the decency to censor his kernel name out for the mailing list which was the right thing to do as far as I am concerned. He may also call his kernel config file whatever he likes. Reminds me of the old one... What's red and hangs in a tree ? My stove. Why ? Because it's MY stove and I can do what I like with it !! Maybe you should check your facts before you open your mouth and embarass yourself. -Clay
