The tutorial specifically says not to work on drivers that have that in the depends on line. However, I also noticed that patches were being accepted for rtl8712 and greybus and those have BROKEN in the Kconfig as well... so is it ok to submit patches for that one or even a patchset? My other question is if we are doing simple cleanups and manage to run make path/to/file.o and create a new .o file in the directory, is it ok not to run $ make -j2 && sudo make modules_install, etc. ? Today I wasn't able to run that successfully because of a bug that got through in the latest update, something to do with x86 architecture, but I still wanted to get some patches in... Thanks, Liz
