I seem to be able to bunzip it fine.... the file is acpi-20031203-2.4.25.diff.bz2 It asks me what file to patch (after I perform bunzip2 -c acpi-20031203-2.4.25.diff.bz2 \| patch -p1) and I don't know...what should I type in? Is that everything? Will I then have a GUI telling me about my battery stats? I need help! Thanks, Chris I am using Kernel 2.4.22-1.2149.nptl PS-I just downloaded this upgraded Kernel. What is the difference between this Kernel and the one that came with my Fedora Core CD? Also why do I have 2 Kernels showing up when I start my computer?
