I have a suggestion, there is a kernel patch to add a config.gz entry in
the /proc fs. It reflects the configuration used in building the running
kernel, which may differ from the one you have in /usr/src/linux. It's
part of the suse distribution. The attached patch will use it, although
you may want to add code to ask the user which one to use.
