Hi, I still like this idea a lot. However, with "make gconfig" I am seeing a segfault when I click on "Firmware Drivers" in the main menu. I only see this with these patches applied. Other than that, they look good to me. Here's the gconfig info: rddunlap@chimera:linux-2.6.29-rc6-git5> make ARCH=x86_64 O=xx64 gconfig & [1] 10722 rddunlap@chimera:linux-2.6.29-rc6-git5> GEN /local/linsrc/tmp/linux-2.6.29-rc6-git5/xx64/Makefile scripts/kconfig/gconf arch/x86/Kconfig make[2]: *** [gconfig] Segmentation fault make[1]: *** [gconfig] Error 2 make: *** [sub-make] Error and from the kernel log: gconf[10868]: segfault at 0000000000000070 rip 00000000004111b6 rsp 00007ffff67cd6f0 error 4 Thanks, -- ~Randy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
