    Which Debian Package Contains Kernel .config File?

    Hello,

    I am trying to build a driver for my new wi-fi card but I need the .config file that was used to compile my kernel. I installed kernel 2.6.11 via apt-get as well as the kernel-source package, but after unzipping the kernel source that came with the package, there's no .config file (the wi-fi card driver code is requiring this). Is there another kernel-related debian package that provides the source with the .config file that was used to build the kernel?

    Is my question clear enough? Thanks.

    Have a look if it's under /proc/config.gz. If yes, do: gunzip < /proc/config.gz > /usr/src/linux/.config
    Also look for it under /boot/
    AFAIK there's no package providing just the config, haven't looked though.
