Re: Bug? undefined reference to `input_event'

[Justin Pryzby <justinpryzby@users.sourceforge.net>]

Is somebody keeping fixing, or at least keeping track of, these
configuration errors?  I've seen a bunch of configuration problems, and
the typical response doesn't include a patch (which is fine, as long as
it ultimately gets fixed).  If something can't be configured as a module,
then it shouldn't be possible to configure it as a module.

I can write patches for these things if someone gives me pointers for
how the 2.{4,5} kernel configuration stuff works.
