so i used to be running the 2.2.17-ide kernel which came with potato, but have since took it upon myself to go with a homegrown kernel, one which i have configured and compiled myself. I downloaded the source to 2.2.16 and patched it to the latest 2.2.17pre19. I configured, and compiled it using make-kpkg and installed it. However, to my dismay, when i compiled it i saw no real option for the dma66 support which i need (and yes, i did select to show the optional selections in make menuconfig) and so my newly compiled kernel does nothing for my dma66 controller on my motherboard. Does anyone know how this support got into the kernel which comes with potato? Is there an option i missed which comes with the regular source from kernel.org, or is there some patch i have to go get to add this capability? There must be something i'm missing. Anyway, thank you so much for your time.
