Eh, make-kpkg has nothing to do with kernel-source-x.y.z except that it recommends it but that recommendation can be fullfiled by a kernel.org kernel too. IIRC you can use make-kpkg with the plain 2.4.20 sources you can obtain from kernel.org and apply the ACPI patch there... Regards, Rene -- .''`.
