The only problem was the iwl4965 module which was missing dbg related one on
default 2.6.29.2 config.

For debian users: I must say that make-kpkg doesn't generate initrd
(--initrd option) with linux-2.6.29.2 sources so I had to create one with
update-initramfs and then add the following line to menu.lst in /boot/grub
dir.

initrd        /boot/initrd.img-2.6.29.2-rt10

I am currently switching to 2.6.29.2-rt11.
