RE: NEWBIE: modules compiling
If i were you i'd upgrade to kernel 2.4.x since it has muuuch better laptop
support. Compiling the kernel with 'make menuconfig' seems to be the most
reliable way to compile any required packages you might need.
Give it a go, it' reliable/modern and feature rich.

Subject: NEWBIE: modules compiling
Hello,
I am new to debian. I just installed Potato 2.2r2 with 2.2.18_pre21 kernel
on a dell Celerion 3500 laptop. Everything worked fine but i had to
recompile the kernel (I took the same kernel source version) to get apm
working.
I did it on the debian way (make-kpkg...) and found it very usefull and
really great.
Now I have to recompile the PCMCIA (among others) modules ; I was
wondering if there was also a debian way of doing...
Thanks for answering...
Laurent Vancaillie.
