These are called "virtual" because you What about the keyboard being built in. People will still not set that. The proper solution would be to alter the build system on a default build to scan the .config file for CONFIG_PC_KEYB, CONFIG_MOUSE, CONFIG_BUSMOUSE, CONFIG_PSMOUSE etc. Then convert them to what is needed for 2.6.X. The same for framebuffer console stuff. We can scan for CONFIG_FB and if CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE is not present set it. We only would need to do this for a default build. - 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/
