The select_drivers line just makes the compiler also use drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/Makefile. select_brcm80211_driver selects the actual Broadcom driver to build. > > - Sedat - > >> + brcmfmac) >> + disable_staging >> disable_bt_usb_ethernet_var >> - select_driver CONFIG_NOTHING >> + select_drivers CONFIG_BRCMUTIL CONFIG_BRCMFMAC >> + select_brcm80211_driver CONFIG_BRCMFMAC >> ;; >> zd1211rw) >> select_driver CONFIG_COMPAT_ZD1211RW -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
