Kernel kconfig controls this automatically for you. If you pick fb as a module you will only get modules as a choice on the drivers. If you pick built in you can build the drivers either way. You can't compile fb as a module and have built in drivers, the kernel will refuse to build. -- Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
