Subject: compile kernel and modules:
The kernel source was not in the proper directory so I downloaded one
but 'make menuconfig' doesn't work.


<1>
bmike1@0[~]$ cd /usr/src
bmike1@0[src]$ ls
linux linux-2.6.15.4 linux-2.6.15.4.tar.gz modules README rpm
bmike1@0[src]$ sudo make menuconfig
make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop.
bmike1@0[src]$

You might just check your distro's update servers for a newer kernel, that
would probably be easier. If you want to compile your kernel with or without
certain modules, run make
menuconfig<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menuconfig>from the kernel
source directory.
