new to debian -- a few questions

[gl34@telus.net]

Hi all,

I migrated from slack8 to debian? via a knoppix3.4 livecd which I installed on 
a K6 500 box.

I apologize if these seem obvious to you.

Where are the drivers? the c files? I looked everywhere. Found lots of h 
files, no c's. On the CD there's a big knoppix file. Are the files I'm looking 
for in there? How do I access them?

in /usr/src# make xconfig fails. How do I (re)configure the kernel?

How do I list packages with dpkg?

How do I find what version of debian I'm using?

uname -r gives 2.4.22.xfs. What's xfs?

Appreciate any help

Gil
