Ahh. This is a self compiled kernel. Debian Kernel has mostly
everything set as modules. I have 5 different 2.6.28 debian lernels
here and just checked all of them. in the ACPI section there are only
2 items that are 'not set'.
# CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_SLEEP is not set
# CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set
I would suggest you try a kernel-image kernel-image-2.6-(386/686/k7)
depending on your processor.

Yes, because I didn't proof read my message.. :-(
I meant to say - dpkg -l linux-source* |grep ^i
here is what I show on my desktop
VT1 root-3-TESTING:~# dpkg -l linux-source* |grep ^i
ii linux-source-2.6.18 2.6.18.dfsg.1-11 Linux kernel source for
version 2.6.18
and
VT1 root-3-TESTING:~# dpkg -l linux-headers* |grep ^i
ii linux-headers-2.6.18-4 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12 Common
header files for Linux 2.6.18
ii linux-headers-2.6.18-4-k7 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12 Header
files for Linux 2.6.18 on AMD K7
Notice I have two (2) kernel header files. the K7 headers are used
because I have an athlon processor on my desktop. My laptop needs
linux-headers-2.6.18-4-686 file instead of the -K7 headers.

And you installed which linux-header file(s) before you tried to
configure that kernel? If your answer is none, that probably is what
caused your original problem.

If you are compiling your own kernel, which it seems you are (or were)
you will be working with a linux-source-2.6.18 package. If you are a
newbie, I would suggest you get your feet wet first and install an
image file instad of the source. They are built to run on a 386 and
up, do not require you to configure/compile them, and will just work.
All but some (required to boot) options are compiled as modules.
Hope the abobe is clear and free of typo's. Its late but I think I
caught them all.
