  Where do I write which blocks I want a module to have?
  
  Edit: I have come a bit further, the block is there but it says "Unknown blocktype", how do i change this?

  Block control configure the blocks to display in each modules
  at the admin like, but the message "Unknown blocktype"
  means to me that there is a little error in the block code...
  
  This block is yours?
  or is a Core Block?

  Yes, it's my own block and my own module. I'm trying to learn postnuke so that I can change a module called pnTresMailer into something I need for a project. So I thought writing my own module would be a good start, but I'm having trouble finding the information I need. It's a shame Introduction to Module Writing in the Wiki is just an empty page.
  
  EDIT: I don't know if I should post these questions in another thread, but until someone tells me otherwise I'll stick to this(it's related). I'm looking at the pnlogin block in the pnRender module and on line 45 it says "function pnRender_pnloginblock_display($row)", where does the variable $row come from?

  oops, I completely misunderstood this one... I thought you were looking for certain blocks to show up in a module.
  Sorry about that.
  
  BTW, I think pnTresMailer isn't a good start, I think that module is not API compliant.

  About your edited question
  I'm not sure
  but it can be an API argument with the block info
  when it calls to blocks($side) in pnBlocks.php
  
  See te code, and you will find in pnBlockShow function in /includes/pnBlocks.php
  this: return $displayfunc($blockinfo);
  and in your case displayfunc of the block is: pnRender_pnloginblock_display
  and blockinfo is &blockinfo[title], &blockinfo[content], &blockinfo[bid], etc.
