If you've copied GENERIC to a new kernal config file and made the changes to that, cvsup by default won't delete that; however, changes to GENERIC won't be tracked into your new kernel config. For my workstation I keep the differences between GENERIC and my kernel handy, then rebuild the kernel config file from the updated GENERIC after a cvsup. (Taking care to check GENERIC and /usr/src/UPDATING for any gotchas.) -- jan grant, ILRT, University of Bristol. http://www.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/ Tel +44(0)117 9287088 Fax +44 (0)117 9287112 RFC822 jan.grant@bris.ac.uk Q: What's yellow and equivalent to the axiom of choice?
