I replaced all dependancies on algos with dependancies on I2C + select algo. There are some cases outside of the i2c subdirectory. Also note that I slightly altered the condition to display the PCILynx comment. I added PCI to the dependencies, I think it's more logical that way. Without it, the user could get the message he/she needs I2C, go to enable it, come back and still not see the option. diff -ruN linux-2.6.1-k1/drivers/i2c/busses/Kconfig linux-2.6.1-k2/drivers/i2c/busses/Kconfig --- linux-2.6.1-k1/drivers/i2c/busses/Kconfig Sun Jan 18 22:19:29 2004 +++ linux-2.6.1-k2/drivers/i2c/busses/Kconfig Sun Jan 18 22:35:23 2004 @@ -48,7 +48,8 @@ config I2C_ELEKTOR tristate "Elektor ISA card" - depends on I2C_ALGOPCF && ISA && BROKEN_ON_SMP + depends on I2C && ISA && BROKEN_ON_SMP + select I2C_ALGOPCF help This supports the PCF8584 ISA bus I2C adapter.
