Dear Noah,


Thank you for kind explanation.
Now, suppose me still wants to get into it.
What will I need?

I learn from previous posts, I'll need newest modutils.
Then what else? I plan to stick on woody for a while, not 
wanting to upgrade to testing/unstable yet.

I have succeeded the compilation process (with many headache 
 because there's so many errors :-), and somehow manage to 
install the modules (make-kpkg wont do this. Wonder why...), 
but when I reboot, It failed to get the modules, so I run 
with no keyboard, no mouse and no X.

But... wait a minute!
I think, I found something.
Is it possible?

I'll be back.
Thanks for the clue.

Best Regards,
arief_mulya
