Well, it seems like a DOWNGRADE, isn't it? If that's the case and not
a typo, you may miss some features... If it is a typo, well, when I
upgraded from 2.6.15-r1 to 2.6.15-r5 I had a hard time making my eth
to work, had to get genkernel default config file and start again from
there, because a lot of conflicts, maybe you could try default
genkernel config...
order to continue using these tools I had to disable the IEEE802.11
subsystem and rebuild my kernel. I've tried very configuration I can
think of (without success). Below is my latest effort can, anyone offer
advice? Many thanks, Richard
