Imported .config from 2.6.16.1
ran "make" to prompt for fill in new values
Found it automatically set on USB storage driver, some sound driver,
and "Video for Linux".
Possibly also the parallel port, or maybe that was already on.
Didn't prompt for any of these
Noticed after kernel was some 500k larger than expected.

Why did not you do "make oldconfig" in the first place ? This is the
only way to migrate your .config from one kernel to another, as it
will ask questions only for unknown (=new) values.

Because on some previous version it asked every question in Kconfig so
I assumed that is what it is supposed to do.
Might as well chalk this one up to PEBKAC

Please send the original .config file.
