Re: Stock kernel config info?
You will fine the file at: /boot/config-x.x.x where the x is a value of your kernel release.

Also, it appears that you cannot simply compile the modules and install on the existing kernel binary (I tried this and got a bunch of error messages at start-up, and lots of stuff stopped working, including my parallel port).

Re: Stock kernel config info?
Once upon a time, I heard Terry Hancock say Is it possible to determine what the configuration settings were for the stock kernels that Debian packages? If you have .deb kernel install look in /boot/config-?? kervel version no. That should be .config for the kernel configuation. Just copy that file to .config in /usr/src/linux, then reconfig kernel base on that file.
