Some thing like that, but not exactly. That is for Intel's chip. You don't have an Intel chip. I think you have GeForce. Some kernel already have it. You just have to enable it. I don't know about 2.4.7-10. It is available in 2.4.18. bob@xxxxxxxxxx wrote: > Does that mean I need to update the kernel?
