Are you absolutely sure that the source was installed? I'm not sure that 
it's installed by default.

I installed SuSE 7.2 during the week, and I've just looked for 
/usr/src/linux, and it's not there. I've got /usr/src alright, but no 
/linux.

Go back to YAST1 and see if the source was installed. It's in series "D" and 
is called Linux(!).

BTW, can you get the screensaver in KDE2 to work?...I've set it up, but all 
that happens is that my screen locks with the screen still visible. It does 
ask me for a password to get back in though.
