I had installed RHL 6.2 sometime back from a CD that came with a Linux Book. It had 2.2.14 kernel, so had to install 2.2.16.rpm to get X running in my i810. But the vmlinuz is 1.5M. Big, I thought. So downloaded 2.2.16 sources, compiled it, booted it. But startx outputs the error
  Addscreen/Screen Init failed for driver:0 
and exits.
What could be the trouble? I want to have a lean kernel.
