Hi, This is related to the problem below. Can anybody please tell me how to find out which modules would required to be compiled and installed before installing a vanilla kernel. I followed the steps in the email below, this time for Fedora 14 but it threw an error for some other module which I knowingly did not compile.I need to know which modules should not be left while compiling and installing a vanilla kernel.
