The following errors show up on 'make modules_install' for the 2.6.18-rc1-mm1

CONFIG_FB=n, CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE=m should not be possible in
2.6.18-rc1-mm1 and 2.6.18-rc1. Can you run kconfig again?

I am not at the computer right now, but I will try later.

Here is how I got config-2.6.18-rc1-mm1. I copied this config from 2.6.18-rc1, which I had created with 'make menuconfig'. I ran 'make oldconfig' on the config-2.6.18-rc1 and answered the new questions to generate config-2.6.18-rc1-mm1. I compiled it from there. Does 'make oldconfig' not work properly anymore?
