Handy hints number one - main

Just found the following today and thought some of you might
find them useful:
Compiling your own kernel?  Already downloaded the sources for
an older version in the same series (eg compiling 2.2.5 but
already have 2.2.2).  What you should do is patch your kernel
tree.  See http://linuxpower.org/display_item.phtml?id=101
Installing perl modules?  Try "perl -MCPAN -e shell" and let
perl take care of downloading, compiling and installing
dependencies.  (I found that one while installing EP - which
seems similar to PHP.)
