So it started this cycle 15:17 < kay> vuntz: i think they have been compiled-in in 11.2, like many other distros do too these days 15:17 < kay> vuntz: but i'm not sure, there too many kernel configs :) 15:19 < kay> vuntz: the moblin stuff has all the needed stuff compiled-in, i thought that we used this config for 11.2, but as said, i'm not sure if that really was the case -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
