I actually think that's still the case as we don't source the Config.in files of the stuff in the sub menus if the menu isn't enabled. >> Look at the top of the kernel configuration system.

I agree. I'll change the sub menus to use menu / endmenu instead of menuconfig. This does mean that you no longer can deselect all packages in a submenu simply by deselecting the menu, but as all packages default to n that shouldn't be a big deal. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
