The whole config system is really outdated. It should be that this task was done with a command like "kconfig enable vimc". It would ask necessary questions and pull in the dependencies automatically. Twenty years ago it made sense to go through the menus and select things one by one. Does anyone really start from defconfig any more? Surely everyone starts with a known working config and just enables specific options. I started to hack together some code to create a kconfig program to enable and disable options. The problem is that all library code assumes we want to display menus so it was a lot of work and I gave up. regards, dan carpenter _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@linuxdriverproject.org http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
