I asked a question recently about the differences in .config and thought that the difference related to kernel versions. But i've just had a look at another dists' /usr/src/linux/.config file which uses the same kernel version as me and it is different.
The differences relate to the details of the sound options. It seems on my Deb system the sound options are stored elswhere but in the "other dist" they are all stored in the .config file. Previous to this I thought that Linux kernel source and various makefiles were identical from one dist to another. Are there any other areas kernel-wise that distributions differ? /usr/src/linux-2.0.32/.config file-sound-options for S/B Pro # Sound # CONFIG_SOUND=y CONFIG_AUDIO=y CONFIG_MIDI=y CONFIG_YM3812=y # CONFIG_PAS is not set CONFIG_SB=y # CONFIG_ADLIB is not set # CONFIG_GUS is not set # CONFIG_PSS is not set # CONFIG_MPU401 is not set # CONFIG_UART6850 is not set # CONFIG_UART401 is not set # CONFIG_MSS is not set # CONFIG_SSCAPE is not set # CONFIG_TRIX is not set # CONFIG_MAD16 is not set # CONFIG_MAUI is not set SBC_BASE=220 SBC_IRQ=5 SBC_DMA=1 SB_DMA2=1 SB_MPU_BASE=0 SB_MPU_IRQ=-1 DSP_BUFFSIZE=32768 -- John Spence <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.lynx.net.au/~jspence -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
