They do generally mutually exclude each other. I think that the problem is just that dirty old "select PARAVIRT" in config KVM_CLOCK. PARAVIRT depends on !(X86_VISWS || X86_VOYAGER), but "select" doesn't care^W honor that. As Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt says: "In general use select only for non-visible symbols (no prompts anywhere) and for symbols with no dependencies. That will limit the usefulness but on the other hand avoid the illegal configurations all over. kconfig should one day warn about such things." so changing the select to depends on would fix it, but that's the only fix that I know of. > HAVE_KVM is intended for the host, not the guest, btw. --- ~Randy ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
