Hmmm.....My kernel is 2.0.33, but the only kernel-source-[ver] I have is
2.0.34 (2.0.33 is the out-of-the-box kernel) :(. I really want to use the
.config for that (to discover e.g. which options were set by the install
process so that I don't have to dig around wondering which option to
select to have ne loaded as a module)....
Thanks,
Matthew
