Hi,

I am not sure if this is hardware related or OS related. I have Mandrake 9.0
on my Pentium 4 M 1.8Ghz laptop. Now the complete kernel compiling
make clean bzImage modules

takes 80 minutes to finish. Every "gcc" stays on the screen for a second or so that 
you can read almost every one of them. Is it normal? The gcc is version 3.2.

Is there anything that I can do to speed it up? I know I could omit some modules
to speed it up but I just want to know how long the compiling takes on your machine. 

BTW, if it is hardware related, is there any software that can detect the current 
running frequency of the CPU? 


Cheers,

We
