Kernel Compiling Issue

Kernel Compiling Issue

[Herb Garcia]

I recently learned how to compile the kernel on my Debian PC. What I'm running into is the default kernel runs well with no issues. With that said, when I will run menu oldconfig. To keep the current settings. When Alall said and done. When I reboot my PC. I get this error: failed to. Start load/save screen backlight brightness

Any suggestions appreciated

Linux Kernel in a Nutshell [1] is a good reference on how to configure
and build custom kernels.
The Debian Administrator's Handbook offers instructions on how to
build a custom kernel the Debian way [2].

Backlight driver is generally a module, not builtin. So modules should be
installed too. Is that done?

Thanks,

Hello,

I'm newbie as well but here is the good "guide" that you can find in the 
archive:

https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/pipermail/kernelnewbies/2011-January/000310.html

I think you should install modules by yourself.
