I need to recompile my kernel with support for the intel i915 driver and I want to be able to use genkernel. Is there any way to do this? Thank You

There is a command in genkernel to allow modifications, like this:
Code:
genkernel --menuconfig

so you can add that special driver you want(or configure it totally by hand) but still use genkernel. That's what I used to use but nowadays I do it manually all the way.

Hope this helps. :)
