Now I only wish I knew what the difference was. <snip> > Hi Jacob, > Isn't it possible to check the differences with one of the three > below: 1. lsmod > 2. make oldconfig and check the differences > 3. dmesg Yes, that's part of the problem. 1) I don't see anything different in lsmod output. 2) I have always used my old config files when compiling new kernels. I will be trying the Knoppix config file this morning. 3) Nothing strange here, either. So, failing #2 this morning, I'm thinking it must be a change to one of the modules, between kernels 2.4.20 and 2.4.23. Then it would look like the same modules are loaded, but one of the modules would be acting differently.
