Subject: [PATCH] wireless extensions should default to Y
Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2015 11:19:03 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150107101903.GA6563@amd> (raw)
Do we need following patch on top of
24a0aa212ee2dbe44360288684478d76a8e20a0a revert?
I updated kernel today, and (probably because extensions were not
selectable before), the default choice was "N", which is wrong:
oldconfig should result in compatible choices being made, for example
to help bisect.

Enable this option if you need old userspace for wireless
