I think we could at least provide for recognizing the version of the running kernel... [Obviously, cross-compilation introduces too many options to be dealt with automatically.] I suppose it would be really ideal to have a gnu configure script set up to build linux.cf... -- Raul ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Acknowledgement sent to rdm@tad.micro.umn.edu : New bug report received and forwarded.
