Hi, look at this: mainmenu_option next_comment comment 'X' tristate 'Y' CONFIG_Y dep_tristate 'depY' CONFIG_Y_DEP $CONFIG_Y endmenu Assume we have selected loadable module support (CONFIG_MODULES) and 'm' for both items. If I then deselect loadable module support, menconfig displays Y as a selected bool value but depY is missing completely. Why isn't depY shown like Y (as a selected bool value)? What to do if I want to achieve the latter? /FAU -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel. Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/kernelnewbies/ FAQ: http://kernelnewbies.org/faq/
