[03:56] <Sarvatt> so, what else fails to build against 2.6.31-rc1 besides bcmwl, vbox, nvidia and fglrx? :)

[08:44] <apw> TheMuso, i know you don't expect me to, but if i don't update them and there are any new options thats guarentees that ports kernels will _not_ build at all
[08:44] <apw> so it seems better for the process to be to update them taking whatever defaults we feel sensible, even if its just whatever is offered
[08:45] <apw> as that at least will compile, and therefore produce some kerenl, then you are of course free to change those choices
[08:45] <apw> the key is trying to maintain some level of compiling for the ports kernels in this very turbulant time for the kernel, where new options are appearing in every release
[09:16] <apw> (that is why i carefully documented the options i chose :)
[09:32] <TheMuso> apw: Right, BTW the powerpc FTBFs at least has a fix upstream, however I'm not sure when the next RC is due.
[12:12] <keshav> i m a newbie, so please pardon for asking this - what is the use of crashdump option in menu.lst for grub?
[12:15] <keshav> nyone, there?

[20:52] * hyperair wonders if acpi-cpufreq will be made into a module as opposed to compiled into the kernel again =\
