did not tried that yet. Although it is possible to miss something with menuconfig I did diff the .config files without noticing anything obvious.
Meanwhile I have tried a few recent Fedora-12 kernels and none of them worked on this particular Atom Netbook with which I have never had problems before. With the Fedora kernels the issue appears to be Intel graphics and it seems the boot continued when I blindly typed the dm password.. so I will investigate further. Last Fedora kernel that worked was 2.6.31 based, the 2.6.32.* I tried so far will display a black screen.
