It looks like you are on Fedora Core. You can get working .config file from /boot/config-2.6.5-1.358, or from /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-1.358/config if you have sources installed. After you copy config file as .config in /usr/src/linux directory, do make oldconfig, it will pick up old configuration and will ask you about newer options in the kernel. > Lastly, is there any other way to make a loadable kernel module?
