You can compile with make -s (silent) option to make buildroot less verbose (but it is still quite verbose). Is the amount of output any real problem, or is it just cosmetical? Normally if there's any build problems you only really want to look at the last few lines (which is also why the autobuilder web page provides a link to the last ~100 lines). -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
