What I do is to run menuconfig against the most recent .config, and search (visually) for items marked [NEW] and read their Help pages. That does mean lots of following of ---> links to subsidiary pages, but at least it takes less time than looking at everything all over again. And it does avoid using oldconfig, which I've heard rumours about. -- Rgds Peter -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
