[PATCH] Remove double mention of Support for ACPI option

2007-10-22 Thread Frans Pop
From: Frans Pop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Current description for CONFIG_ACPI includes the word "Support" twice. One effect of this is that in menuconfig the "--->" that indicates the presence of sub-options will not show up unless you have a very wide console. Sig

menuconfig: fail with clearer error if curses.h N/A
