Hi, I just upgraded my kernel from 2.4.7 to 2.4.19 using the source package for 2.4.19 at www.kernel.org. Everything works fine; but for some reason, my system with the newer kernel can't/doesn't want to use OpenGL even though the system used it before the upgrade. I copied the .config file from my 2.4.7 source directory to the 2.4.19 one before using 'make menuconfig' and continuing with the kernel compilation process. I'm using XFree86 4.2.0 which I installed from the binary files at www.XFree86.org. My computer is a Compaq 1800T Presario laptop with ATI Rage 128 Mobility graphics. When I load up my system with the old kernel and use 'lsmod', it shows that the rage128 module is being used. It isn't used when I load up the system with the new kernel. XScreenSaver and certain games run incredibly slow with my new kernel; they work fine under the old kernel.
Do I need to reinstall X 4.2, or is there something else I need to change in my kernel configuration before compiling 2.4.19 (I only added USB modem functionality and Advanced Power Management when I configured 2.4.19). I'm a little reluctant to reinstall X again, since I had so many problems getting 4.2 working with my Debian Gnome 2 setup.
