I loaded the kinetic kernel about a week and a half ago
and it really has improved the usability.
I was working on trying to change the splash image at
boot, but the make fails when I run make mbr against the
latest snapshot. I get an mbr.elf file, but no .rom file.
I am not a developer, just a sys admin, so compiling is
new to me. Hopefully someone will work up some more
complete compiling instructions for people without a
developer background.

I downloaded the zip file, unpacked it and copied the
new
kernel.elf to the
SD card. That's all I need to do right?
I am asking because I don't see a dramtic change in the
scrolling.
(I do see the kinetic effect, if I quickly move my
finger
bak and forth)
Anyway, scrolling is still very good. :-)
