hi all
i've decided to upgrade my kernel from 2.4.5 to 2.4.17 (on a slack 8  box)
i've d/l the kernel and upgraded all need utilities
i've done everything exactly like the last time i upgraded
then, in the end, i've got to "make modules"
after a while i've got an error about a module that i didnt even choose
i've checked .config and saw that it wasnt chosen
any ideas why it tried compiling an unselected module?

the module is SiS and its under the chracter devices section
here's the error:
sis_main.c: In function `sisfb_heap_init':
sis_main.c:1265: `HW_CURSOR_AREA_SIZE' undeclared (first use in this
function)
sis_main.c:1265: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
sis_main.c:1265: for each function it appears in.)

function)

any suggestions?
