Ok, now that you've told us what the error was . . .a bit of useful
information:  Google is your friend.

I went to Google and did a quick search on this error.  The first
posts it returned told me that gcc-3.3 couldn't compile some older
versions of the kernel (e.g. 2.4.20, 2.5.76, etc.) because of
code extensions that were no longer supported by gcc.  Later versions
of the kernel fixed this up.  For a long time, gcc only generated
warnings about this; by 3.3, it generated errors.  If you want
to compile older versions of the kernel, you need gcc-3.2 or
earlier.  This isn't a problem with the compiler or the kernel,
but rather a mismatch between them.

You might wanna look at:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

in particular, the "Before You Ask" and "When You Ask"
sections.  It would have helped you, and your potential
respondents, a lot.

Is this the part where we guess what the error was?

How do you know the problem is with 2.4.26?

No way to tell, since you haven't told us anything about the error.

You should include this error with your e-mail. My telepathy2originalPoster
protocol is broken.

That's weird. No one else I know of has had problems, and I certainly haven't.
Can you be more specific as to why it doesn't work for you at that kernel
version.

Nope.

This is what I have in /lib/modules/
2.0/misc/
devtrace
iBCS

2.0.34/<-- I can see most modules here (foo.o?)

2.0.35/
block/
rd.o
misc/
lp.o
modules.dep
net/
bsd_comp.o

I really chose more modules while running `make config', both compiled
in the kernel and as installable modules.

BTW, I did run `make modules' from /usr/src/linux/, the above (from
/usr/src/.../boot/) was run later on.

Thanks

Horacio

Modules are in /lib/modules/'kernel version'. "make modules_install" installs
modules into this directory. Use kernel-package, it automates all of this
and compiles kernels into '.deb' files for easy installation.

You should do this from the top level of the kernel source tree
(/usr/src/linux).  Even better, you could install and use the
kernel-package package, which will build your kernel into a Debian
package and deal with just about everything after configuration for
you.
