You never need extra libs for kernel installs. It comes with all you need provided your version of gcc can compile the version you want. Shouldn't be a problem unless your distro is oooold. Just make sure to read the install readme and it should be no problem. John

That's true, although you must make sure that all your system utilities are up to date enough (the required versions are in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes) -- Cheers, Chris Howells -- chris@chrishowells.co.uk, howells@kde.org Web: http://chrishowells.co.uk, PGP key: http://chrishowells.co.uk/pgp.txt KDE: http://www.koffice.org, http://edu.kde.org, http://usability.kde.org

True, although moving from 2.2 to 2.4 may require a newer modutils. I think the version in 7.0 is fine though, -- -ckm
