Sorry if this is a simple question, but what does it mean to say the
current kernels are MRG kernels, do they have to run from the Mac
partition, that is not installed in / on the MacBSD side??

Does it matter what they are named?

Do they have the same support for non apple video cards that say the 51695
kernel had (thats the latest one that I can get to run)  I'm using a
Samsung one bit full page card that the old kernel works well with.

For a while I was running a kernel that someone compiled for a Logitech
mouse (which I don't have) and it would run ok also, but I rm'd it by
accident, and it doesn't seem to be around anymore.

I'm using a MacII 20 meg ram but only 8 meg works because I cannot boot
with mode 32 on, pmmu, 68882, and except for having to start X and dt a few
times before both screens will work, I'm pretty happy. There are just more
and more incompatibilities between my old kernel and the newer binaries.
