ahh, thank you. next questions:
how do i get it to work on a remote display? setting DISPLAY= in the shell
prior to running g_auto_install doesn't work, nor does editing
g_auto_install to add an $ENV{DISPLAY}= line.
i'm trying to figure out how sub add_kernel() in lilo.pm works. if i want it
to install my custom kernel, do i just append an add_kernel call below the
others in sub suggest(), or is there more to it?
thanks!
joe
