Subject: [blfs-support] How Do I Know When to Recompile the Kernel?

In the BLFS book's Xorg Drivers section ( 
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/x/x7driver.html ) Xorg Evdev 
Driver-2.7.3, it says:

########
Kernel Configuration 

Enable the following options in the kernel configuration and recompile the 
kernel if necessary: 

########

How do I know if recompiling the kernel is necessary?

I've read quite a bit of the LFS kernel documentation but haven't found a clear 
discussion of what specific things require kernel recompilation. Can you anyone 
point out such information?

You can check your kernel configuration by reading /boot/config-* assuming you 
saved it as suggested in the LFS book.
