When you build a kernel, usually all available modules are build, too. If you comment out sth., it's not linked static into the kernel, but the module will be available.

I don't understand your question. Can you please ask it in other words? > And Where can I find Kernel limits I know I can extend it with > sysctl but limits ... ?! See sysctl.conf(5) and loader.conf(5) as well as sysctl(8). > Vahric Best regards, Jens
