I have a 56k modem :) and took the time to download slackware 7.1 it all installed fine :) phew time not wasted. However the bttv module is not working so i went to get the new one however it will not compile :( has anyone had any problems and solved them compiling this module on the 2.2.16 kernel (i think its that kernel don't laf if its completely wrong im on another machine atm :p ) . If i need a new kernel can someone give me advice on where to get one appropriate for slackware 7.1
