I totally missed the part where Robert said he was compiling it into the ker=
nel. Also, I remember the days when drivers didn=E2=80=99t automatically com=
pile in dependent options (example: =E2=80=9Cdevice re=E2=80=9D requires =E2=
=80=9Cdevice miibus=E2=80=9D). I guess things have changed a bit in the past=
 year [while I was away] with some drivers?
Thanks,
