Just a note. I don't know that I would make compiling my own kernel a real high priority unless your system demands it. You should probably build a few other apps first to get your feet wet with the whole compiling process, editing text files, navigating your system. Unless you have some odd hardware, Pat V (maker of Slackware) will provide up to date kernel packages that you can simply install rather than building your own.

I just notice that I can't install nVidia drivers on 2.4.X and that is a big priority for me to have Nvidia grapics installed.

Why is that? I am running the nvidia drivers on the stock 2.4.x kernel. And if for some reason you need the 2.6 kernel. Pat supplies one in /testing. Just follow his directions closely.
