I'd think it would be nice if the help text had a note telling the user if it's safe to always enable this or not, even if it's not needed. Something along the lines of "It's safe to always enable this config option even if you don't need it." or "This option should only be enabled if needed as it may cause problems otherwise." - whatever applies... -- Jesper - 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/
