Dear all,
        I'm in the process of fiddling around with the config of my
kernel. This means using the "menu config thingy" that "make
menuconfig" builds. It is very frustrating. Does anyone know why
stuff is not in alphabetical order? It's a pain in the clacka trying
to find some of the entries. For example "Device Drivers -> Android".
You would expect it to be near the top of the device drivers, but no,
it's near the bottom.

        No, I'm not expecting anyone to "fix" it, just basically a
whinge.

Yeah, someone should clean that thing up… But I guess a lot of people
would complain because they are used to the current structure. 😄

Did you know you can search with / and then jump to the results with
the number keys?


Number keys?  I got to go test this.  That would be one nifty trick.

Thanks.

Yep, its quite nifty!  Also, menuconfig is not the only way - there are a few config programs for the kernel ... if you have X on the machine there is xconfig which can be quite useful. Others Ive heard of a mconfig, gconfig and nconfig and there are probably more.
