OK, I am ccing the list on this. I do have the source installed. I
installed the deb package for 2.2.19 and compiled the kernel for the
machine that it is running on. I want to use that kernel also since that
is the one that I am using for the new system too.
So, I do not believe that the system is missing anything or else I would
not be able to compile the kernel.
Any other ideas?
