Make does not have built-in telepathy so how it can guess what to do with your .c file: compile in kernel, compile in kernel or not use it at all and which kernel options are needed to make it usable ? > or would "make dep" and "make zImage" automatically take care of it. No. "make dep" will handle only '#include' dependences, dependences for .c is MUCH more complicated issue. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu
