it is set ... but no decoded output. probably something is messed up
kervel@bakvis:~$ cat /boot/config-2.6.0-test9-mm4 | grep -i kall
CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y

kervel@bakvis:~$ cat /boot/System.map-2.6.0-test9-mm4 | grep c052ed91
c052ed91 T pnpbios_init

pnpbios says something like this:
 found installation structure 0xc00f5560
 version 1.0 entry 0xf0000:0x6149 dseg 0xf0000

i'm going to try without pnpbios i think.

my working 2.6.0test9 also has pnpbios setup:
kervel@bakvis:~$ cat /boot/config-2.6.0-test9 | grep -i pnpbios
CONFIG_PNPBIOS=y


greetings,
frank
