J. Day" X-X-Sender: rpjday@localhost.localdomain To: Linux kernel mailing list Subject: confusing ACPI, APM menu dependencies Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 808 Lines: 21 in "make xconfig" for 2.6.0-test1-ac2, the menu entries for power management are a little confusing. the top-level entry for "Power management options (ACPI, APM)" seems to suggest that you have to at least select this top-level entry before you can be more specific. yet, even without selecting this, you can still select ACPI. this is definitely a bit confusing given the label and help screens for these menu entries. can someone clarify this? or perhaps reword the menu entries to make it more obvious what the choices and dependencies are. rday - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
