Probably not something you want to try your first week
of using Linux.  :-)

I used to compile the kernel quite often back in the early
days of Linux (I started using Linux in 1994).  Luckily for
you Linux has come a LONG way since then.  I almost never
need to do a kernel compile anymore.  The major distro's
include support for almost any hardware as modules in the 
stock kernels on their CD.  Makes life a lot simpler!

Good luck!
