Before we had "default m", since that is how a distro is expected to compile this, and other, "ACPI drivers". But we got complaits that _nothing_ should be "default m", so I changed it to "default y". Maybe that was simplistic -- button should be "default y", but the platform drivers should all be "default n"? I'm not sure what to do here -- what use-model should we tune default Kconfig for? thanks, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
