Many have asked for the kernel source, I've made it available as a separate download.

Hi,

Instead of the full kernel source, it'd be more useful for me the .config file (I'm still a dial-up user :-)

Thanx a lot for your work - orco

Mwah Mwah Mhaw!!!

I was going to request this, as I've just got a new ATI grahpics card, and I need this to compile the kernel module as I can't get the Debian 2.4.20-3-k7 kernel (binary package) - that I wanted cos the precompiled i2c modules depend on it -  to boot.

One thing tho, the tarball seems a bit small (2992kB). All the Debian 2.4.x source packages are well over 20 megs.

Thanks,
Sam

As far as I (and ATI's make script) can tell, this isnt the kernel source. I think that the actual source is in a package called kernel-source-2.4.20-xfs_10.00.Custom_all.deb, which I can't seem to find right now. Hopefully you will have it downloaded somewhere, or in your apt package cache.

EDIT: No luck, I can't find the package

Alien, can you use the original 2.4.20 source?
