Have you enabled the mol kernel support?
I know there are a few machines that don't support thr run-time patch, like
my Performa 6360, but I don't recall that being a problem on your machine...
it should patch when you startmol. If your machine does not support the
run-time patching then you'd have to patch the kernel (info in
/usr/doc/mol-/Kernel_Patches or thereabout).
