OK so I've done this on config.mk: ifneq ($(CONFIG_USB),) ifneq ($(CONFIG_LIBERTAS_THINFIRM_USB),m) CONFIG_LIBERTAS_USB=3Dm NEED_LIBERTAS=3Dy endif endif This means you'll get CONFIG_LIBERTAS_USB unless your kernel already was built with CONFIG_LIBERTAS_THINFIRM_USB for all those building with it. If your kernel was built with both then its your problem.
