I use make nconfig, which is somewhat easier to navigate around. Only once I tried to manually change .config, because revdep-rebuild wanted to rebuild sys-fs/udisks, which complained about CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND not being set, but a silent make oldconfig removed the line automatically. I did the change manually because CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND doesn't seem to exist in 3.2.12. Anyway, thank you for thinking about it. regards, michael
