Amateur



new to Linux, so I hope
you'll all ready to groan/laugh or whatever tickles your fancy...

I've only been using Linux (SuSE 6.2) for nearly a
month now, and yesterday I thought I'd install the most recent kernel. 
Everything went (surprisingly) well and now I boot up into 2.2.14. 
However, there are a couple of things:

Whilst it's booting I get a message
saying    Starting kerneld, version 2.2.2-pre6
(pid10)    and that I really don't want to be running it
with... I can't remember.  I read a doc that told me, I think, that I've
got two programs doing the same job.  Later on, just before I can login, it
says the same message, but <FONT
face=Arial>What is this?&nbsp; Am I f**king up my system?&nbsp; How do I fix
it?

help, I can't get any
sound.&nbsp; I've got access to two sound cards a Videologic SonicStorm
Pro&nbsp;(ESS Maestro), and a Terratec (ESS slot-1).&nbsp; I
thought all I had to do was click on&nbsp;a button in
xconfig, reboot, and that would be that.&nbsp; I never got any sound with
2.2.10, but then again I never tried.&nbsp; It'll be great if you could
help.

Otherwise Linux is great.&nbsp; I've only been into
computers for six or seven months, a friend gave me his copy of Windows 98 (I
wonder why?), and I can't believe I stuck with for&nbsp;as long as I did, oh
yes, System Shock 2.
