... and it also takes account of dependencies without asking. The difference between the two is that silentoldconfig does not display any other modules on the screen other than those new entries for which user input is required. I prefer oldconfig because it helps me orientate myself down the kernel tree, by looking at modules preceding the new entries. -- Regards, Mick
