   found that I need to add support for a nic that is not built into
   the kernel.  If I can retrieve the .config file that was used to
   build the kernel for that debian package, I can simply add the
   proper line without going to the trouble of recompiling a kernel
   from scratch.
   
ls /boot/config-*

Copy the one you want to /path/to/kernel-src/.config
