If you don't find it useful, press N. One more detail: Is better put this modules listed in lsmod as "built-in"? One doubt, in my lsmod I see sd_mod, cdrom, intel_agp, sg, pcmci_core, agppart, snd_page_alloc, and some others, but they didn't listed in .config file E.g. #cat config_2.6.21.1.txt | grep -i sd_mod Result is empty!
