I don't know how I should understand your statement. Does this only comment on my suggestion to send it to the patch system or on the patch itself? After Hans-Jürgen addressed your concerns about the order in arch/arm/Kconfig compared to drivers/Kconfig there was no addional feedback (apart from the discussion about including drivers/Kconfig in arch/arm/Kconfig). I consider the patch good until arch/arm/Kconfig includes drivers/Kconfig (if ever). As it is a while that the discussion took place, here is the thread in the archive: http://lists.arm.linux.org.uk/lurker/thread/20080207.125824.348cd1bd.en.html and the following post includes the last version of the patch: http://lists.arm.linux.org.uk/lurker/message/20080207.131236.8c4f4569.en.html Best regards Uwe -- Uwe Kleine-König, Software Engineer Digi International GmbH Branch Breisach, Küferstrasse 8, 79206 Breisach, Germany Tax: 315/5781/0242 / VAT: DE153662976 / Reg.
