When I did "make menuconfig" after downloading linux-2.6.0-test4, I noticed three issues:
1) In the main menu, there are two items called "General Setup": ? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? ? ? Code maturity level options ---> ? ? ? ? ==> General setup ---> <== ? ? ? ? Loadable module support ---> ? ? ? ? Platform support ---> ? ? ? ? ==> General setup ---> <== ? ? ? ? Advanced setup ---> ? ? ? ? Generic Driver Options ---> ? ? IMO the items from the first "General setup" menu could go into the second "General setup" menu, so the first could be removed. 2) several menu items react strangely to "help", for example "FDDI driver support" in "Networking support": no help comes up, instead the cursor jumps to another menu item. The same thing happens if "help" is invoked for the second time on a submenu item ( XXX --> ) in a submenu of the main menu (for example on "Ethernet (1000 Mbit)" in "Networking support". I would expect in the first case the "no help available" screen, and in the second case the general menuconfig help, which appears if you invoke help on a submenu item for the first time. 3) I can't invoke "make menuconfig" if I don't have write access to the linux kernel directory, even if I just want to look at the configuration, not save a modified one. BTW, appart from these issues the 2.6 config menu is much cleaner than the 2.4 config menu, for example all filesystems are in one submenu of the main menu.
