After all, the reason I enabled PCI on UML was to be able to test - in simulation - PCI driver code in UML... Most certainly nobody wants to do that here, so it's pointless to let the driver be compiled. OTOH, as Christoph points out, that seems like a band-aid for some really strange code, but it's probably the easiest way to get the build issue fixed in the short term. johannes
