(The new option is called "Show all prompt options".) These patches are looking good so far in my limited testing. However, if gconfig is going to live, it needs at least one more thing: it should display the kconfig symbol type (tristate, boolean, etc.) like xconfig does (explicitly) and menuconfig does (by using [x] or <x> in the menu). thanks, --- ~Randy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
