Hey man, once again (and I've done this a lot of times :) ) thank you very much.
Just another question:

If I link the BUIL/kernel-xxx/linux-2.6.9-xxx to /usr/src/linux,
programs that expect to have the kernel sources in /usr/src/linux
right?
However, some programs (like the ATI drivers) return a "not version.h
file found"

Do you know something about this?

Thanks
