Most of the HID drivers I listed are for joysticks, game controllers and remote controls. I doubt you'll be able to debug your initrd with these...

Yeah, as a maintainer of that code, I fully agree, those drivers you listed have no business being built in.
OK, I modularized all HID device drivers which could be. Some couldn't due to a weird dependency on !EXPERT. I'll bring this up upstream. As things are right now, we would need to switch CONFIG_HID back from y to m if we want to be able to modularize the remaining 12 HID drivers. I think this makes sense, but what do you think? After all, not all systems need the hid core driver - my workstation doesn't. -- Jean Delvare Suse L3 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
