Hi,

I installed Mandrake 5.3 using the stock Workstation install. My printer is on
LPT1 ,which I think is lp0, and I would like to enable parallel port support in
this kernel. When I try to run "make xconfig" as instructed in the Kernel
HOWTO, I get an error message as follows,

                       make: ***No rule to make target  'xconfig' . Stop.

I am running the 2.0.36-3 kernel. I tried to install the 2.2.1 kernel present
on the CDROM but for some reason my edits to the /etc/lilo.conf file did not
work even after removing the "preferred" folder in /lib/modules and running
/sbin/lilo. Needless to say I had a real mess since I had upgraded some of the
packages. I did have a boot disk with the old kernel so I was able to recover.
I would really like to use Linux with Word Perfect but I need my printer to do
this. Any ideas?

TIA,

Cindy Pearce
