Hi, There was a typo that caused the configuration to be done multiple times; I think in the latest version that has been fixed (I realize that may be little consolation to people running stable 1.3.1 rXXX).
Unfortunately, to ease the task of people who maintain a kernel source on the local machine and install patches to keep the kernel uptodate, the configuration script runs make oldconfig to ensure that all the dependencies are in sync. Until now, I was not aware of any problems created by doing so: and thus indeed, make-kpkg is behaving as intended. What we may need here is to add a target to make-kpkg: namely, configure. In which case, you need to do: 1. make <config|xconfig|menuconfig> 1a. make-kpkg configure 2. Edit drivers/sound/local.h and add #define DESKPROXL 3. make-kpkg -revision Custom.X.Y kernel_image If you do step 1a, then make-kpkg shall not re-run the config again in step 3. Does this sound satisfactory? (most people skip steps 1a and 2, as before) manoj -- Wherever you go...There you are.
