insmod fails after compiling new kernel
Hey guys,
here the deal, I'm running Slackware 10.1 and every time I compile a kernel I lose sound (and sometimes agpgart) The kernels do work, and I've been using the old Windows trick of reinstalling the OS without formatting to get my sound back, but I know darn well that's not a solution. I've been using 2.4.29, because 2.6.11 won't compile with the hermes driver (that's a problem for another post) I worked up the courage to build my own kernel three months ago, and I've had this problem on every attempt, whether I compile my sound as a module or in the kernel itself. What is really frustrating is that when this happens, I lose sound for every kernel on the system, including the stock Slackware kernel. The procedure I follow is....
1. edit make file to add "extra version"
2. make xconfig
3. make clean
4. make bzImage
5. make modules
6. make modules_install
Oh yeah, I usually start with make mrproper. So...any ideas?
