I hadn't even considered that file. Anyway, I have built three versions of
the kernel, two on my desktop system with slightly different modules setup
for each and one on my laptop just a few minutes ago, though I haven't yet
rebooted to try it out yet (have to wait for my kde sources to finish
building). Each time, with just the files you list, they have built fine and
without problem. The kernels worked fine on my desktop and one is running as
my default now.
I tend to have more difficulty getting a kernel to work properly on my
laptop, but I am hoping this time I will luck out.
