: The only thing against it I can think of is the length of time it takes to : compile the whole kernel compared with the time it takes to just compile : pcmcia-modules. Pcmcia seems to be updated a lot more frequently than the : kernel, and it could be a hassle having to recompile the entire kernel every : time just to update the pcmcia modules. Color me ignorant, but I don't undersand this argument. Can't you recompile modules without recompiling the kernel? I know I can :) It doesn't matter if the modules came bundled with the kernel source, or as a seperate package AFAICT ... Of course my argument is shot to hell if you aren't compling PCMCIA as modules. Which laptops need PCMCIA support before modules can be loaded? -- Nathan Norman MidcoNet 410 South Phillips Avenue Sioux Falls, SD mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.midco.net finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP Key: (0xA33B86E9)
