Mmm, i had trouble with the CONFIG_HIGHMEM some time back, but i can
give building with it a try. Don't know if i will have time before next
week though. Is it wise to enable that, or could it cause problems
elsewhere (i have only 128 Mo of ram, so no way of really testing it).

And it used to work before ? From what kernel are you upgrading, and
could you try again with the previous kernel, just to make sure an
upgrade did not break something totally unrelated ?

Also, did you install the kernel-modules also ? There is a bug which
allow installation of wrong versions of the modules package, and this
may cause some of the problems you see.

here.
