Thanks. That fixed my problem. It seems that deleting stuff in "make menuconfig" is 90% of the work in a kernel config. All etherenet drivers are default enabled. What bugs me is that with every kernel upgrade, "make oldconfig" shows a whole bunch of new ethernet drivers, and they're all default enabled. -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
