Re: [PATCH] lib80211: make crypt modules configurable by user

Hi,


Please do me a favour and explain _why_ you want to change anything
before you do. I'm not really interested in pointless chit-chat about
lib80211 kconfig.

Yes, the correct solution to that inconsistency is to remove the
lib80211 config symbol from the user's view... then it'll always be the
same the driver is ...

Yes, well ...

The following patch (snipped) was clearly not tested at all. I'll leave
it to you to figure out why it's completely and utterly broken, but I'll
give you a hint: it has something to do with "select".

Please come back when only you have a problem to solve.
