In theory you could leave it undefined but still provide an implementation in a different module. Just adding #ifdef CONFIG_DVB_USB_AF9005_REMOTE would nuke the (futile?) effort. Now, since the problem seems to be with CONFIG_MODULES disabled, maybe you could combine both conditions #if defined(CONFIG_MODULE) || defined(CONFIG_DVB_USB_AF9005_REMOTE) Bye -- Luca -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
