    Thanks, Thomas. Yeah, I'm compiling it now, and I set APM to y. I hope
    the compile works this time; this laptop is so slow. :) My desktop
    system is still on Windows, and I think compiling a kernel on a
    different system than the one it's going to be used on is a bit over my
    head right now. I wonder if I could boot the desktop into a live CD and
    use clustering to compile it faster...but I imagine getting that set up
    to work would take longer than waiting for the laptop to compile it. Heh.
