[wplug] make menuconfig

[James O'Kane]

If you get sound from the audio test, I'm not sure the problem is at the 
kernel level, but rather in the Gnome audio deamon, esd sometimes called 
esound. I don't use Gnome much, so I would suggest looking at the gnome 
configuration tool for sound options.

I'm not sure how make menuconfig is detecting libncurses, but I think 
there was an incompatible change made between libncurses 4 and 5. See if 
debian offers an older version as well? Red Hat calls them ncurses and 
ncurses4. Failing that, there is make xconfig or make config.

What I sometimes do when I'm using a distribution's stock kernel is to 
copy the config they used to /usr/src/linux/.config and run make oldconfig
Then run make xconfig and tweak things one by one. Some of them are still 
poorly documented, but some should be obvious such as which ethernet card 
you have or that you don't have a RAID card installed. Given infinite 
time, the best thing to do would be to compile, reboot, remove exactly one 
option, compile, reboot, etc. But I don't think anyone has time for that.
