Kernel compile#

Because my HP 6830s laptop has a buggy DSDT, I have to change that. Since Linus decided that kernels no longer accept custom DSDT's I have to recompile the kernel to get this done.
I found a useful link here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1341580

So, what I did is :

sudo apt-get install fakeroot kernel-wedge build-essential makedumpfile
sudo apt-get build-dep linux
sudo apt-get install qt3-dev-tools libqt3-mt-dev
mkdir src
cd src
tar xjvf /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32.tar.bz2 
cd linux-source-2.6.32/
cp -vi /boot/config-`uname -r` .config
make xconfig .......
