I know basically what modules are and why they are used (to keep the kernel as compact as possible, etc). I recently came across the term "modularized kernel". Now I know that all linux users make use of modules, right? Why use a term like that; I doubt there are linux users who don't use modules at all, so I can't imagine it's term to distinguish it from a "non module" kernel. Is it just a term to describe the animal or is there more to it? Just curious - I'm a newbie. -- To get out of this list, please send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/ and the archive at http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html
