+<title>Kernel Compilation Settings</title>
+<para>If you have an Intel P6 (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later), it is
+recommended that you compile <acronym>MTRR</acronym> (Memory Type Range
+Registers) support into the kernel.  The kernel can map Cyrix and AMD
+<acronym>CPU</acronym>s to the <acronym>MTRR</acronym> interface, so selecting
+this option is useful for those processors also.  This option is found in the
+"Processor type and features" menu.  It can increase performance of image write
+operations 2.5 times or more on <acronym>PCI</acronym> or
+<acronym>AGP</acronym> video cards.</para>
+<para>In the "Character Devices" section, enable <acronym>AGP</acronym> Support and select the chipset
+support on your motherboard.  If you do not know the chipset, you may select
+all the chip types at the expense of extra kernel size. You can usually
+determine your motherboard's chipset by doing:</para>
+<screen><userinput><command>cat /proc/pci</command></userinput></screen>
+<para>In the "Character Devices" section, <emphasis>disable</emphasis> Direct
+Rendering Manager unless you have a Direct Rendering Infrastructure
+(<acronym>DRI</acronym>)
+supported video card.  A complete list of <acronym>DRI</acronym> supported video cards can
+be found at <ulink url="http://dri.sourceforge.net" /> in the Status section.
+Currently,
+supported cards include those from 3dfx (Voodoo, Banshee), 3Dlabs,
+ATI (Rage Pro, Rage 128,
+Radeon 7X00, Radeon 2), Intel (i810, i815), and Matrox (G200, G400, G450).
+If you do enable <acronym>DRI</acronym> here, make sure you select the video card(s) you want
+to support as a <emphasis>module</emphasis>.</para>
+<para>Additionally NVidia provides their own closed source binary drivers,
+which do not make use of <acronym>DRI</acronym>. If you intend to use these drivers,
+do not enable <acronym>DRI</acronym>.</para>
+<para>If you made any changes to the kernel configuration, recompile the kernel.</para>
+<para>Copy <filename>/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage</filename> and
+<filename>/usr/src/linux/System.map</filename> to
+<filename>/boot</filename>, edit <filename>/etc/lilo.conf</filename>
+appropriately and run <filename>lilo</filename>. If you use
+<filename>grub</filename>, edit <filename>/boot/grub/grub.conf</filename>
+and add the new kernel to the boot menu.
+</para>
+<note><para>If you build <application>XFree86</application> in a chroot environment, make sure the kernel
+version of the base system and the target system are the same.  This is
+especially important if you enabled <acronym>DRI</acronym> support as a module as
+instructed above.</para></note>
+</sect3>
+<sect3><title>Creating <filename>host.def</filename></title>
+<para>Although <application>XFree86</application> will compile without a
+<filename>host.def</filename> file, the following file
+is recommended for customizing the installation. Start from
+the <filename class="directory">xc</filename> directory.</para>
+<note><para>The <filename>host.def</filename> file is a
+<application>C</application> file, not the
+usual configuration file.  If you make any changes, be sure the comment characters
+(<userinput>/*</userinput> and <userinput>*/</userinput>)
