I've been messing with 2.6.8 now for several days. Using
http://www.desktop-linux.net/debkernel.htm
for my cookbook.
I get bootable kernels ok, but haven't been able to get modules to go.
Or something. No pcmcia nics, no sound, no X pointers; all stuff that
works (semi-works in the case of sound) under 2.4.20.
Can someone point me to a tutorial for moving from 2.4.x to 2.6.x?
