Help? Kernel Build Howto for PowerBook G4 (5,2)



Hi,

for about a week now I am using ubuntu linux on my powerbook. It runs
really nice for allmost everything I want.

Two issues I haven't got to work:
Sleep (with the latest sleep patch by benh) which would be soooo nice
Airport Extreme (Broadcom Corporation BCM94306 802.11g (rev 03))

The Problem I have is: I lost my old kernel-config from debian (yes -
stupid me forgot to do a backup) and I cant seem to get a bootable
kernel built by using the ubuntu-config and doing a make oldconfig. 

So:
Is anyone here using the same kind of machine? Or something close to it?
Do you have a kernel config for the sleep-patched kernel? And can
someone give me a step by step checklist what to do to get things going?

I would greatly appreciate it.

thx in advance

Timo Reimerdes
