I used a Kanotix 9a live CD (which is based on Knoppix with less modified packages) to do an hd installation. Then I've installed Gnome and many other packages. The only problem is replacing the knoppix modified sysv-rc with the standard one. You need to force uninstall of the knoppix one and install the stardard one.
I use this apt sources list: /etc/apt/sources.list

I current use the kernel-source-2.6.10 compiled via make-kpkg command with this config (you need to copy it to the kernel-source-2.6.10 directory as .config)
Use this commands to compile the custom kernel:

fakeroot make-kpkg --append-to-version=custom --revision=1.0 --added-modules=alsa-driver,fglrx-kernel-src,ipw2200,sl-modem --initrd kernel_image modules_image

As you have seen I use many added modules. Alsa-driver is for sound, fglrx-kernel is the kernel module for ati proprietary drivers, sl-modem for the integrated modem.
Anyone knows how to recompile the kernel with this command without first cleaning all with "make-kpkg clean" and "make-kpkg modules_clean"? (in other words reuse already compiled and not changed modules)
