Compiling the kernel (2.0.36 on Debian 2.1) scares me a little with so many options and so little knowledge! I would guess this is one thing that holds back the full potential of my Lattitude CPi D300XT laptop (sound, APM, docking station access). So many questions come to mind as I work through the config options. (E.g. should I include CS4232 when my card is CS4237B, what do I need to do to access my CDROM that is located in the docking station, and many more.)
I know the variety is limitless, but it would sure be nice if there were a repository of "standard" config files for various "standard" machines. Does such a thing, or similar exist? Where's a good place to get kernel advice? What would be a good starting point for my config file (rather than the one that comes with the kernel-source package? Cheers, Graham
