HI all.

I installed all the patches and I have X running.
The only little bug is that i cannot move my mouse.
I read in patches' INDEX file that for patch 00018 (the com ports patch)
I have to re-mknod com1 and com2 and reconfigure the kernel.

I don't know how to reconfigure it correctly for the patches to
be effective, as I dunno the new major/minor for com* .

Thanx for your answers.
Bye - Piero
