[PATCH] lib80211: make crypt modules configurable by user

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Make the crypt modules configurable by user. Normally drivers select them
when needed, but out-of-tree drivers can't do that. Having a minimal
kernel with just the things required won't select any of those modules,
resulting in the external driver to be close to useless (ie. it can scan
the networks, but cannot join a single one).
