I solved the problem by installing the tk/tcl rpm packages and xconfig works. Maybe this should be a dependency for the kernel source? This is for the standard kernel that comes with 9.1 (2.4.21-0.13mdk I think...). I've got the splash screen up and running (I left out initrd support) but am pretty stumped by my power problem. Using the standard kernel, on the command halt the computer shuts down and powers down. ACPI is disabled in the bios and doesn't effect this behaviour (due to the fact acpi doesn't work for my via chipset appollo 133 and 686a southbridge) it still powers down. However in my beautfiul new optimised slimmed down kernel (its been on the atkins diet) everything works apart from the computer powering down. I even hear the HD spin down, but no power off. It is obviously a missing module in the kernel, but I haven't touched the standard advanced power management options (turned off acpi support, also tried with it on, and still no effect.). Under one kernel it works, under the other it doesn't. Any clues you can give me for other modules required to allow apm to turn off the computer? I can post the .config file as an email attachment if you so wish. Cheers Huw
