The counterargument is that wanting to test the 3.5 kernel, without modification, on the SLE11 userspace is trying to steer the configuration of a completely different product. I'm not going to make HID_GENERIC static just so you can avoid the dependency.
I'm not suggesting to make it static, just that it would have been an option.
Your system boots fine without it because you don't need to use the keyboard in the initrd. The dependency exists because of a real bug report.
The repo does likely also provide an updated mkinitrd.rpm so the "fix" comes for free for its users. All others who dont run Factory have INITRD_MODULES=. If I had such a setup that would have been my fix to that very problem (old dist + new kernel). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
