I was going to re-compile my kernel today to get rid of some of the things I don't need but when I got to the network card driver modules, mine was greyed out (Realtec 8139). This is on the 2.2.19pre17 kernel. I then went to the 2.2.19 kernel which offered two drivers (rtl8139 and 8139too), but again both were greyed out. What do I need to activate in an earlier screen to make these drivers available to me. Networking support is activated as is module support. Both kernels came from debian. I haven't tried one from www.kernel.org yet. Also which one of these kernels is the latest version? I'm not at my debian workstation or I would look at the readme.
