13 Well the easiest thing for you to do, might be to get a working kernel
14 config from http://www.ppcconfdb.sourceforge.net/?id=conf and check it
15 against your own. There is a kernel config directory specifically for
16 the eMac G4 there.

18 If you still have trouble, post up your /usr/src/linux/.config so we can
19 take a look at it.
