Usually, you find quite a lot of information about the kernel in English but only few "readable"[*] documentation in German. Many people on the German suse-linux list complained about this fact, so I decided in 2002 to write an up-to-date kernel howto in German. In principle, I could translate it but, well, it's a lot of work and I am not sure whether it's worth doing. As mentioned above, there is quite a lot of stuff available in English - it's maybe not SuSE-specific. However, for the SuSE-specific part you can always refer to Andreas Gruenbacher's documentation which is included in the SuSE kernel sources.

Yes, the discussion was about re-enabling USB_DEVICEFS which had been disabled in the SuSE 10.2 standard kernel at that time. USB_DEVICEFS can be enabled by recompiling the usbcore module, so we focused on modules, not on building a complete kernel. Regards, Th.
