it's probably easier to compile the whole thing, and then just use
the resulting module.

don't do that.  at the top level directory, run "make menuconfig".
navigate to Network->Bluetooth and Network->Bluetooth->Bluetooth Drivers.
enable what you need.  when in doubt, turn it on -- you don't
have to put the module on your XO, but if you need it, you'd
rather not build again.

after saving your new config, type "make".

it's likely that module relationships between the kernel versions
you're building for your desktop, and for your XO.
