kernel compiled no keyboard not found - toshiba/ slackware 9.1


Compiled the kernel from 2.4.22 to 2.6.6 - everything works fine - the system boots up perfectly upto the login prompt. But the keys on the laptop don't work.

OS: Slackware 9.1
Keyboard worked on kernel 2.4.22? : yes, it did.
One error it gives is: cardmgr not found!

here's the .configure [turncated] from /path/to/kernel/src/
