Re: [gentoo-user] New To Gentoo and Emerge, No ACPI in Kernel

[Devon Miller]

Just to throw my 2 cents in...

I always set

CONFIG_IKCONFIG=y
CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC=y

unless I'm building for a memory constrained system. This stores the config file in the kernel image and makes it available as /proc/config.gz. That way, when I get it working, I know what I did.

I'm currently running 2.6.15-r8 of suspend2_sources, so if you're using a different kernel YMMV.

Also, you can tell when the running kernel was built looking in /proc/version for the date stamp.
