Microsoft Word - Making Computer the default to open files

Making Computer the default to open files

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 03:09 PM PDT

When I click on File, the Open screen appears with two panes or frames: OPEN and Recent Documents. The OPEN frame has 4 options: Recent Documents, Computer, SkyDrive and Add a Place.

Is there a way to make Computer the default option, and hide the other options? I have just upgraded from Office 2002 which, compared to 2013 was quite friendly and easier to move around in. I don't care about the other three options. I would like to eliminate the necessity for the extra step.

Eliminating CMY colors from images in Microsoft Word 2013

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 01:11 PM PDT

I am preparing a manuscript in Word 2013 for printing to Adobe pdf and then to submit for Print on Demand. I need to eliminate all CMY color content from the images in my manuscript. The images are mostly clip art and jpgs. I thought I had created all of my images in grayscale, but when I examine then after made into pdf form, every image has CMY color content to varying degrees. My Print on Demand vendor does not support Word (only Quark and InDesign), so I need to figure out how to eliminate all CMY color. Suggestions?

Word 7 font won't change to point 12

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 10:42 AM PDT

Word 7 keeps telling me that I am using font point 12 in a document. However it appears to be on a smaller font. I have compared the document to other documents where I used point 12 and they are definitely not the same. I can't get the current document to use point 12. I went to Modify and right clicked, then set it on 12 but it won't change to 12. Any suggestions?

Word 2013 saves documents in .docx but doesn't allow editting unless you re-save them in 97-2003 mode

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 10:02 AM PDT

Hi,

Word 2013 opens in Read Only-compatibilty mode all .docx it creates (it names them Wd000000x). If I place the cursor over these files, they are described as word 2007 documents.

If I want to edit such a document, I have to re-save them as .doc and this means that I may lose formatting. It is really annoying.

Thanks in advance.

AUTOCORRECT (MACROS) IN WORD 2010 NOT WORKING IN MY TEXT DOCUMENTS

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 08:22 AM PDT

 Hi!  I work doing  medical transcription from home.  I use a company based platform that interfaces through Word.  I use MS Word 2010.  When I make macros through autocorrect in Word and try to apply them in my document, most of them do not work.  Is there a compatibility issue?  Something I need to enable or turn off or do?  I am very frustrated as I need to increase my productivity as I get paid by the line and when my macros do not work I have to type the entire document.   THANKS!

Adding a footer to the first page of a document

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 08:17 AM PDT

I am using Word 2010, and I am having difficulty in adding a footer to the first page.  After going to the Insert caption and clicking on Footer, I select the Blank format.  However, at the bottom of the page, where on the left it says Type Text, I am unable to see any text that I type.  But, when I double click anywhere else on the page to get back to my document, what I typed suddenly appears at the bottom of the page.  But, I have lost all of the following pages to my document.  When I scroll down below the first page there is garbage.

 

Obviously, I am doing something wrong!  Word 2000 seemed so much simpler.

Word missing from computer

I recently logged on to my computer and was about to type up a paper on Word and all the Word software that I downloaded was gone from my computer. I tried searching for it and nothing came up.

How to retrieve a lost file?

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 06:06 AM PDT

I recently lost a SD card while travelling (whoever said the world was a small place evidently never lost an SD card).
The most important file on it was a novel manuscript that I only have about half of on my PC at home. 

When I go on Word the file is still in the recent documents section, but of course it won't open. Is there a back-up file stored on the computer anywhere? 

Thanks in advance

Word creates a space when highlighting

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 05:47 AM PDT

I do a lot of music editing in Word with chords and lyrics and Word does something I cannot figure out how to turn off.  When I highlight a line of music to move it, Word creates a space at the end of the line.  Then when I paste the line in where I want it, there is automatically created a blank line under the line I just pasted into place.  I want only the chords or notes I highlight to be inserted, NOT additional spaces that I then need to carefully delete.  Since I am constantly copying and pasting to rearrange verses and lines, the extra time to delete all these unwanted inserted blank lines is really killing me.  I completely turned off "Use Smart Cut and Paste" but it is still doing it.  When I highlight a line of text, whether I drag right or left, as soon as I highliight that last letter, the extra space appears at the end of the line.  What do I need to turn off to get Word to stop doing this?  Thank you!!  Joe Adams

Microsoft Word 2010 - Form creation

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 05:13 AM PDT

Hello, I hope someone can please help me with this query.  I am using Microsoft Word 2010 and have created a Traning Needs Analysis form with around 50 questions. I have protected the form for a User to complete only the relevant fields without being able to change any other part of the document.  The TNA is made using a Table and each question is in a row - with a possible 4 answers (4 cells within each row).  I have created 4 answers with check boxes for the User to click whichever answer is appropriate, however, I need each check box to be a radio button so that only one answer per row can be answered.

I have tried using the legacy - Active X control, but that will only allow me to select one radio button in the whole document.  I have tried creating multiple frames each containing a question and 4 possible answers, but again only one radio button per document.

I am not techinical, but am hoping there is a way around this, or some suggestion (apart from a drop-down list) that anyone can provide.

Many thanks  Sue

Word 2010 shading of text disappears on save/reload

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 04:57 AM PDT

I have several styles that include shading of different colors.  Every time that I close and reopen the document, I can't see any of the shading until I reapply each style.

This problem is not exclusive to the styles though.  If I apply shading to any specific selection, that shading is lost when I save and reload the document.

I'm referring to shading and not highlighting.  Highlights do remain when I save and reload, but to my knowledge there is no way to set a style to include highlighting on a character level... just shading.

Could anyone tell me what is happening and whether I can do anything to fix this?

Thanks,

Rob

Word 2010 - header on cover/ one page only

.docx files not opening in Microsoft Word Windows 8 native, why?

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 01:09 AM PDT

Since I bought a new machine with Windows 8 and also purchased Microsoft Office 13 I have this problem.  I cannot open .docx files (same with Excel, but less frequent) that I received from others. It is extremely annoying, I have to use a third party software and very frequent formatting is messed up, even if I open using Microsoft Wordpad.

I cannot understand where the problem is. I first of all save the file, and then try to open and I get the following message:

"Word are experiencing an issue trying to ope this file
*check the file permissions... (which are totally fine)
*make sure there is sufficiente free memory... (which is not the case, brand new computer, very small file)
*open the file with the Text Recovery Converter (which is not clear how to get to this feature anyway).

Is there anyone else experiencing this frequently? Also, senders confirm they are using Microsoft 2010 to generate original files.

Thank you in advance!

Word 2010 Help function

Posted: 26 Jul 2013 01:00 AM PDT

This has been covered in other posts but none of the suggestions fixed the problem for me.

I am using Win 7 Pro and a clean install of Office Pro Plus 2010, with no earlier versions of Office installed.

Problem: When I try to access Help in Word 2010 I get the following message:

'There are no help topics available that match your request.'

Note that for Access 2010 and Excel 2010 the Help function works fine.

Solution 1: Delete all IE Browsing History (I am using IE 10), with the selection 'Preserve Favorites website data' unchecked.

Solution 2:
  • Step 1. Rename all instances of the folder 'Microsoft Help' to 'Microsoft Help.OLD' - I had four of them in the following locations:
C:\ProgramData
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local
C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local
C:\Users\MSSQLSERVER\AppData\Local
  • Step 2. Under Control Panel, Repair the instance of Office 2010
  • Step 3. Reboot.

Neither solution worked - I still get the same 'no help topics' message.

Does anyone have a 'new' solution that may help?

Caption Labels

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 09:17 PM PDT

I have created my own Heading Styles that are linked to the Outline Levels.  These Headings are formatted with numberings in a Multi-level list. (i.e. 1, 1.1, 1.1.1 as different styles)

After adding in the body text and photographs into the appropriate places I tried to add in captions.  I want the caption numbering to include chapter number.  However I got the following message:

Figure Error! No text of specified style in document..1 – Flower

 

How do I go about correcting this error?

words spelled correctly but not found in the main dictionary

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 07:30 PM PDT

I used the word: "agreement" and the spell checker said that the word was not in the dictionary. What can I do about this problem, which seems to be much bigger than just adding the word to the dictionary, as the word should already be there. I think something may be seriously wrong.

Accept All Changes, text disappears

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 07:16 PM PDT

Hello,

I have a Word document (docx) that exhibits the following behavior.  I open the file in Word 2013.  I see Track Changes is on, and the mode is Simple Markup.  I see a particular line of text that I had added to the file in my editing.  I select Accept All Changes and the line disappears.

I can supply more details if appropriate, but am I right in thinking that this sounds like a bug?  Thank you.

Mark
p.s. I saw the same behavior in Word 2010, so it is not a 2013 issue.

Styles? with mixed hard-coding and numbering

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 05:32 PM PDT

I use numbered styles for Headings and AppHeads 1-9.  However, I also inherited a series of documents that have customized versions of these Headings (using the same default style names).

 

Each document is part of a large document series (let's say denoted "H") and individually numbered by document.  When the Heading 1 Style is applied to plain format-stripped text, this is the result:

 

Introduction ==> H.62.1 Introduction

 

Heading 2 yields:

Subsection ==> H.62.1.1 Subsection

 

and so on.

 

My problem is I can't figure out how to recreate this scheme in new documents.  I can't copy the styles over (because each document has a number, so 62 becomes 63 in the next document) and I've been through every switch and toggle and setting in modify styles and esp. in the numbering controls and cannot find a place to set this value such as "H.62" or "H.79" within each document's Styles (or wherever else it belongs).

 

Can anyone help with this?

Microsoft Word - Word 2010 - Figure and Table Captions w_Chapter Number are Wrong

Microsoft Word - Word 2010 - Figure and Table Captions w_Chapter Number are Wrong

Word 2010 - Figure and Table Captions w_Chapter Number are Wrong

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 03:18 PM PDT

We do a considerable number of engineering documents with heading levels often going down 4 to 5 levels.  In Word 2003, when inserting Figure and Table Captions, I selected Numbering.... include chapter number.  From then on, everything advanced and numbered correctly as I proceeded thru the document.... and regardless of what level the caption was inserted into... then comes 2010

 

My headings are

 

1.0

  Table 1.0-1

1.1

  Table 1.1-1

  Table 1.1-2

1.1.1

  Table 1.1.1-1

1.2

  Table 1.2-1

  Table 1.2-2

1.2.1

  Tab;e 1/2.1-1

1.2.2 etc

 

Question?  for this type of level numbering, do you have to reset the heading level for each of the headings?  Example:  section 1.0 (which I cannot get to show the "0" for the life of me) set heading to (1).... for section 1.1, set heading to (2)... for section 1.1.1, set heading to (3) etc.?  Don't remember having to do this in 2003 for the program to recognize what heading level the caption was being inserted into.  Is there a setting or problem with my headings that this is NOT numbering correctly?  While playing with a document to post this question, I set 1.0 (heading 1) and when I set 1.1 (to heading 2), my previous 1.0 changed to heading 2.

 

Also - why won't the caption number (i.e., 1.1-1, 1.1-2, 1.1-3) restart at -1 within a section?  As I add captions, the SEQ field numbers change as I change the heading reference in subsequent captions.

 

I checked by opening a 'new blank document' to see what the default heading style was referenced and in the first instance, if referred to heading 2.

 

Why is ithis happening?  Please shed some light on what I may be doing wrong.

 

Regards - Lenny33

Cannot open any application in Home and Student 2010 edition

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 01:54 PM PDT

When I tried to open Word or Excel today in my Home and Student 2010 edition of Office I am asked for an activation code.  I installed this software a year ago (8/4/2012) and it has been working fine. All of my old files are still on my computer  but I cant open them or create a new one.  I haven't made any recent changes to my computer.  Of course, I cannot find the original software box or disc. The activation code is not listed on my Microsoft account probably because I created the account long after I installed the software.  I bought the software originally at Best Buy.  So what happened and how do I fix it?

How to get word 2010 to stick with Adobe Reader 10 for opening PDF files

How do you associate adobe to open this file type with in the Word program?

 

Outside of Word, my default program to open .PDF files is Adobe Reader 10

Creating columns later in a document that apply only to that point forward

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 10:00 AM PDT

I am using Word 2010.  When I wish to create two columns later in the text of a document, Word applies the columns to the entire document.  When I used Word 2000, one also had the oppoortunity to select where the columns were to start (e.g., this point forward, etc.).  In 2010, the Columns tab under Page Layout automatically applies the structure to the entire document.

 

I am sure that this is an easy "fix!"

Return Address on #10 Envelopes is not Correctly Placed and Cannot be Adjusted Using Word 2010

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 09:56 AM PDT

When printing #10 envelopes the return address prints about 1 and 7/16 inches from the left edge of the envelope.  It previously would start printing about 1/2 inch from the left edge which is where it should be.  When I try to adjust the placement of the return address using the options selection the return address is moved to the left but cut off at 1 and 7/16 inches.  I appears that Word will not allow printing closer to the left edge.  Previously selecting #10 envelopes would start the return address 1/2 inch from the left edge of the envelope.  I have not changed printers. 

 

Any solutions would be appreciated.  Thanks.

forwarding word document by email

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 09:10 AM PDT

I don't think that there is a fix for my issue but you never know!

When I'm looking at a Word document I often want to forward it on to a colleague. In 2003 I would click on "forward as an attachment" and up would pop Outlook with the cursor in the "To:" box and I would then type in the email address and hit the tab key to get to the body of the email if i needed to add a message.

With Office 365 I've worked out how to "forward as an attachment" but the cursor doesn't default to the logical (to me at least) "To:" box but instead jumps to the body of the email and I have to click back into that box.

A minor irritation but it's very frustrating that a simple process has been made more complicated.

:(

Hyperlinks menu option is greyed out and I can't edit links...but it worked yesterday morning........

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 07:29 AM PDT

I am using Word Web App in Chrome. I am very impressed so far, but I did notice that the Links button under the Insert menu was greyed out and I was unable to insert a link. All of a sudden, yesterday morning it was working (both the button and right click) and I was very excited. But then yesterday afternoon when I went to show someone, it was no longer working (either the button or right click) and is still not working now. I have tested accessing the file via Safari on a Mac and no luck there either. This is driving me crazy, please I need help.

[EDIT] I have done some more testing. And if I create a file from scratch, I get all the expected options. So what possible properties could be set up on this one file that does allow me to edit or insert hyperlinks? Does it matter that the file is shared and has track changes on? (Which it did before yesterday morning......)

Windows XP, Windows 7, and Word 2003 dysfunctionality

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 07:13 AM PDT

I'll be moving from Windows XP Home Edition to Windows 7 Professional in a matter of days. As a consequence I will have to switch to new Microsoft Word programs because my two current Word programs, 97 and 2000, are incompatible with Windows 7, even (I hear) in XP Mode. My current plan is to install Word 2003 and one of the newer Word "ribbon" programs and seeing which of these work best relative to my various word processing habits and needs.

In anticipation of the switch, and having a copy of Word 2003, I installed the program on my XP system to familiarize myself with it. All that did was remind me of why I had refused, years ago, to move beyond Word 2000. Already I've found two glitches, which I'll mention momentarily, after explaining the nature of my concern.

What I hope is that these and perhaps other glitches are XP-related and that they will disappear once I migrate to Windows 7. But that's just a theory since the glitches are not reported as best I can tell, let alone traced to XP.  The reason for my hope is that a friend who uses Word 2003 on Vista does not experience them. I would like to bolster the hope and thus ease my migration concerns, and so I would appreciate any guidance the community can offer.

Here are the two glitches:

First, when I left-click on an empty space within a document in an attempt to activate the blinking cursor, the program does not produce the cursor but instead selects the line of text nearest to the click point. If I use the up and down manual cursor keys, the selection function grabs a line above or below the initial line, as the case may be. In order to restore the blinking cursor I have to click within a line of text or click the right arrow on my keyboard. This problem has nothing to do with the EXT function indicated on the status bar, which is the diagnosis I've seen in forum discussions. That function can be turned on and off in my program, and the problem exists even when EXT is off. I have also conformed my selection options (under Tools > Options > Edit) to those of my friend and got no relief on that basis. In particular, this is not a "smart select" problem. 

Second, I am unable to remove hyperlinks globally using my longstanding method, namely, selecting all the text and then pressing Control-Shift + F9. When I do this, the hyperlinks remain in the document. The procedure is so straightforward, and so basic to any and all Word programs, that it needs no further explanation.

Of course there is a third possibility: that my installation introduced problems for some other reason, e.g. that I replaced Word 2000. This itself was odd since when I installed 2003 I asked that it NOT replace 2000, and yet it did so. (I recall this insistence on the program's part years ago, which is why I never kept it on my PC.)

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Mail Merge/Tent Cards

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 06:10 AM PDT

I am creating tent cards for my next course with a list of 50 names and don't want to do each one individually.

So, I've created mail merges on my tent card.... (top and bottom with company logo in the center, mirrored) however, when I fold the card, the participant side sees his name in the correct direction however, the side facing me is obviously upside down. 

Can I fix this?  Is there an easier way to do the mail merge on tent cards?

Thanks in advance

Overtype not working in one doc.

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 03:28 AM PDT

A colleague of mine has one Word 2003 document in which he was using overtype mode, but even while he was working in the document overtype became disabled, and now we can't enable it again! It's still working fine in other documents of the same nature, but even in Options under Tools the option to tick or untick overtype mode is completely greyed-out, when that document is open. Is there a way to see how this could have happened and how we could fix it? Thank you very much.

I want to make a search/replace macro in word which is on 2 or 3 rows, like this

"art. 2  2  pct. 22 din"

and convert it to this

"art. 2<sup>2</sup>  pct. 22 din"

instead of art. i can have other words too like lit., pct., alin. and the numbers are always different

i tried to use the next wildcard replace but it doesn't work:

search: "(art. )([0-9]{1;})(^13)([0-9]{1;})(^13)"  replace: "\1\2<sup>\3</sup>^p"

if i type only (art. )([0-9]{1;})(^13) at the search field it works but if i type the rest it doesn't find anything

what is the answer for this problem please?

can't leave draft view

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 02:13 AM PDT

Hi,

I compared two large documents. When I save and open my newly created document with all the track changes in there, it only opens in "draft view". It does not allow me to switch to "print view" ("Seitenlayout" in german).

How can I switch to print view, so that I can see all the boloon tipps with the track changes?

thank you for any help.


Edit: I open the word in "save mode" and opened my document. now, it can switch between the two views. Can anybody please explain?


Edit 2: I can only switch from print view to draft view. But I cannot go back to print view.

I just accidentally click no to the autorecovery file. can i still retrieve my file?

Create New Webpage

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 12:27 AM PDT

I'm creating a simple web site using MS Word (Front page kept crashing)

I have a main web page (index) with a folder containing the styles

I want to know how to create another web page in same folder, sharing the same style but without creating another folder

Tried copy/paste index but it doesn't like that (already exists)

Tried opening index.html and saving as 'another' but it creates 'another' folder

Or is that just a limitation of MS Word Ill need to deal with

Something has changed in Word when I save a document.  It has stopped  saving to my complete files in My Documents. It says my documents but instead of all of my documents it contains only some. How can I restore it.

Is it possible to associate different autocorrect settings with different Word templates?

Posted: 24 Jul 2013 06:15 PM PDT

I have different clients with different stylistic requirements. One allows the use of the word "click," for example, but another wants me to write "tap" in place of click all the time. One client wants the word spelled "dialog" and another wants it spelled "dialogue." Is there a way to tie autocorrect entries to distinct Word templates (.dotx or .dotm files) to facilitate this? I'd like to be able to write a doc for client A, for example, using the ClientA.dotx template and whenever I type the word "click" the autocorrect mechanism associated with ClientA.dotx would change that to "tap." If I were writing a doc for Client B, using the ClientB.dotx template, I would be able to write "click" and it would left alone. Similarly, the autocorrect function would ensure that "dialog" was spelled that way for one client but as "dialogue" for another.  The global autocorrect function (tied to the .acl files) is great for universal changes -- but in other situations where the variants are client specific it only gets in the way.

TIA

Bug: Incorrect caption numbers w/ multilevel list + headings

Posted: 24 Jul 2013 05:11 PM PDT

Word 2013 (and 2010) does not properly renumber existing {Figure|Table|Equation|Etc.} captions in a document when a multilevel list is attached to the "Heading n" styles.

Assume I have a document with many existing captions whose sequence numbers are keyed off the style "Heading 1", e.g.,

Figure 1.1  ==  Figure { STYLEREF 1 \s }.{ SEQ Figure \* ARABIC \s 1 }


If I now insert a caption that is keyed off the "Heading 9" style, for example, Word then incorrectly renumbers all existing captions, throughout the entire document, with the "Heading 9" style:

Figure 1.1  ->  Figure A.1  ==   *** BROKEN ***

Figure { STYLEREF 1 \s }.{ SEQ Figure \* ARABIC \s 1 } -> Figure { STYLEREF 9 \s }.{ SEQ Figure \* ARABIC \s 9 }

This is just ludicrous.

I've posted a short video on YouTube that demonstrates this bug:

http://youtu.be/yeD89a1RSyM

Going through a huge Word document that contains more than a hundred figures, tables, equations, etc. and manually fixing all of the broken caption field codes is not a viable solution. I might as well go back to using LaTeX, if that's the case. Am I missing something procedurally, here? Or does anyone perhaps know of a VBA script out there that repairs the captions that should be keyed on the "Heading 1" style after Word breaks them?

First of all, I want to thank everyone for your comments, all have been very
usefull.

The thing is that now I've an operational "rescue diskette". It boots,
reinstall lilo reading the lilo.conf in the hard disk, and ask the user to
press a key to restart.

During my search of a method for acomplishing this, I analized only two:

- Reutilize tomsrtbt

- Build my own diskete using a ramdisk, as suggested by Laurenz Albe



From the two methods above, the first was not suitable for me. It was too
hard to edit tomsrtbt for accomplishing such a simple task, and the worst
thing was that even the provided scripts (buildit.s) didn't work because of
a libc incompatibility.



So I followed the way suggested by Laurenz. I build my own kernel with only
the basic options: ramdisk support, ide support for my disks, ext3 support,
console support, and a few others. No hardware support for devices of course
and no modules as I compiled everything important inside the kernel. At the
end, I got a 1MB 2.6.8.1 kernel.

Then I began the ramdisk creation. I'm using Slackware 10, so I used a
script named mkinitrd, but building an initrd is not a big deal, it can
easily be done by hand. The benefit of a script is that in the process of
creating your final version you'll have to build several ramdisk versions,
so having a script saves time. A workaround for the case that you don't have
a script for creating the ramdisk, is using any ramdisk you have and editing
it. For example, if the file is initrd.gz you can create a backup of it
(lets say restore.gz), then unzip it with gunzip, and mounting it with:
mount ./restore /mnt/initrd -o loop (remember to create /mnt/initrd or
whatever you like). Then you can browse inside the file, make any changes
you like, unmount it, zip it, and use it in your diskette. Basically, you
must edit the file linuxrc to do what you want, and remember to use absolute
paths (eg /bin/echo) because no PATH is defined.



The last part was installing lilo in the floppy. The best way I found to do
this was to write the lilo.conf as if the floppy where your root disk, and
then with the floppy mounted running: lilo -r /mnt/floppy. I tried to use
the script makebootdik provided with Slackware, but it required a lot of
editing to have things done as I wanted.

From here is all try and correct.



I hope this helps anyone wanting to do the same. Don't forget to do a backup
of your diskette with dd, because they don't have a long life and tend to
fail when you most need them :)

Compile & Upgrade Kernel

Posted: 12 Oct 2004 07:51 AM PDT


"vgaswin" <com> wrote in message

First, simply upgrade to Fedora Core 2. Seriously, this gets you all the
other applications and tools you need for the 2.6 kernel in one step, and
installs a 2.6 kernel.

Second, take a look at whether you can use the latest RPM based kernels in
the Fedora development FTP sites. This can provide you automatic editinig of
the lilo.conf or grub.conf files, report dependencies, make it easier and
safer to *remove* an old kernel, etc.

Third, if you're still determined to do it yourself, take a look at the
"kernel-source" RPM's. They already include configuration files for various
hardware configurations, and a set of patches either backported from newer
kernels to support new hardware and fix known bugs, or to set things up the
way RedHat likes them. Then read the various HOW-TO's on the net about
compiling RedHat kernels.
