That was only for the micron millennia transport and only for the 2.0.x kernels. My laptop works just fine without doing anything special with the 2.2.13 kernel.
Just make your new kernel with only the things you need. Use the kernel-package package to do it. It's really easy. Just do the make menuconfig (or whatever you like), then make-kpkg clean make kpkg --revision mynewkernel.1.0 kernel_image Then install it using dpkg -i. The .deb file is left in /usr/src. You might also want to install pcmcia-source and compile that stuff too (use target modules_image). jim
