It was just becuase currently we have a HG tree containing only ALSA portion and a git tree for the merge, and above all, because I have no control over the latter git tree... > >This will make testing and merging much > >easier for me... > > > >But, above all, I'm not convinced much by that patch, especially > >because it introduces new kconfigs just for menuconfig. > >For example, CONFIG_SND_PCI_DRIVERS doesn't appear in any Makefiles. > > Neither is/was CONFIG_DVB IIRC.

(Just think of > compatibility of the .config format.) Well, I find the change of CONFIG_SND to menuconfig is fine, too. But CONFIG_SND_PCI_DRIVERS and others don't make much sense to me. How is it useful at all? Anyway, I'd like to confirm that this really works before merging to the ALSA tree. As Mauro suspected, kconfig seems not working as expected... thanks, Takashi - 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/
