I just did this exact upgrade on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 4100) a few 
days ago, and didn't have a problem.  The only extra step that I did was 
start with a clean copy of GENERIC and merge in my changes, rather than 
carry over my old kernel config file (although I'm not sure if it was 
really necessary).  So far, everything is running fine.
