Hello!

> So, I tried installing the 1.16a kernel.

For 1.16 the network stuff changed a lot. Be sure you have the right
modules in your mint folder (sockdev.xdd is for 1.15, inet4.xdd is for
1.16).

NVDI must be loaded before the kernel. Also on 1.16 the memory protection
is on by default. You must explicitly turn it off through the mint.ini
(can also be set if you hold the shift key if mint is loaded). The
programname no longer matter.

Hope this helps.
