Absolutely, and it doesn't hurt if 'make oldconfig' is done twice :)
Thank you all for the help. I seem to have things working once again, that
GAMMA DRM was the culprit.
I also found that I should 'rm -rf /usr/src/modules/thinkpad/' before
compiling a kernel of a different version than the previous kernel.
Once I did that and untarred a new thinkpad-source, I was able to get the
thinkpad modules to have the correct EXTRAVERSION. This was a problem
earlier, until I started removing the old (used) sources.
