Heather (and others) The apm=on sounds great for a stopgap.
However, I really want to dig out what's happening with the kernel -- Sure, I know that I can modularize it, but I really like to know that I've customized it to fit my machine. Picky, maybe, but isn't that why we go through this rather than pay someone else to do it? I do anyway. I've double checked the configuration, then gone back and read the '.config' file just to make sure it really wrote what I wanted. Looks like here's a clue (from /usr/src/linux/.config) ... CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE=y # Please see Documentation/ide.txt for help/info on IDE drives # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDISK is not set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD=y # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDETAPE is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEFLOPPY is not set ... This looks suspicious! Guess I'll hand-edit and see what I get. Thanks, Morgan Morgan Hall Wilsonville, Oregon ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
