Re: [LI] Problems in recompiling kernel



HI Rajesh,
                    I am able to get 1024x768 but the terminal window does
not shoe the prompt I am sure with a little bit of tweaking that can be got
rid of ! I am overclocking my card it does make a difference . The PCQ CD is
all that I have Also the CDs with RH 6 unleashed . Also after running pcq
updt script the xconfiguration did support 6215 but some manual tweaking is
required I dont like 1024x768 cause I get only 16 bit/pix I hate people who
say NT or win is faster ! They compare speeds when only win is running to
linux where tons of services are running in the background . I love tweaking
& fooling around with my comp. My win runs faster with p2 300 than my
friends p3 450. now I want linux on my box to run fast! so I want to get
into recompiling also imagine you can have a custom kernel to suit your comp
usage & config!!
Thus awaiting replies for a newbie
With Love & Regards
Ritesh
HAPPY NEW YEAR
HAPPY Millenium
HAPPY Century
HAPPY DECADE
SO ALL THOSE GURUS OUT THERE MAKE MY NEW YEAR GIVE ME INFO
