SCSI works as a module and it uses sysfs. See drivers/scsi/scsi_sysfs.c. Does that answer your question? I wasn't quite sure what the question was. Next question, based on: drivers/built-in.o: In function `probe_edid': (.text.probe_edid+0x42): undefined reference to `fb_edid_to_monspecs' Should backlight and/or display support depend on CONFIG_FB? Right now they don't, so the above can happen... --- ~Randy - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
