Right you are. I've just added it - rebuilding kernel now.
How are others keeping their custom kernel config up-to-date? This
seems like a real issue to me, unless there's a tool to do this already
and I'm just not using it. I cp GENERIC, make my changes, and move on.
As my machine tracks -CURRENT, the GENERIC kernel changes, but my custom
config stays the same (I never 'merge' any changes in).
Thanks Fabian for the hint..
