Subject: Unable to totally get rid of CONFIG_INPUT options with 2.6.6

I have a machine whose only contacts with the outside world are ethernet and
serial. For some reason, it appears to be impossible to disable CONFIG_INPUT.
Is this by design? I have everything removed from the input config screen, but
after some digging it appears that CONFIG_INPUT is not actually controlled by
any config files.

Is this an issue? Would I save anything by manually editing it out?


Thanks,
Chris

Enable CONFIG_EMBEDDED, then you'll be able to get rid of INPUT_MOUSEDEV etc.
