<Ok, how in the @!#! do you guys compile the kernels for the distro?

I need to get my orinoco pc-card working under pcmcia - if I try to
recompile
the kernel I get undefined symbols all over the place and I know I can
use
the standard 2.2.17 kernel, but I lose the ATA100 drivers, reiser, usb,
and
3dfx.

I could of course compile these in myself except that when trying to
patch in
reiser and usb together they don't play well.

So I tried using the kernel source with 7.2 and where do you suppose I
get an
error on boot? loading the reiser mod from initrd (which I made) -
undefined
symbols.>

okay im not sure if the 2.4.0-test9 kernel has /can be patched for
everything you need but
if you don't have the dep tree correct you could get undefined symbols
in a module with a dep.
ie sb.o has a chain of modules starting with soundcore.o that define
symbols in the chain.
can reiser be compiled as part of the kernel?? (Y rather than M in
*config)
check module.dep in your modules directory (and force a refresh by
removing it)
