It might be my failed understanding, but the requested patch for this, was to move the ON/OFF of EDAC into the 'drivers' submenu directly (instead of down in the EDAC submenu), to allow for faster disabling/enabling of EDAC in menuconfig. But all the modules are still tri-state configured. If I am missing something here, please give me some needed instruction. From what I understand your comment, the code is can still be configured in modules. thanks doug t > > -- > http://www.codemonkey.org.uk > - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
