If they aren't being compiled as part of the kernel no > opt_global.h would exist. perhaps i wasn't clear. It is just a cosmetic issue. A kernel compile is now run as cc ... -DKERNEL -include opt_global.h ... so opt_global.h is not explicitly included by any file, and one could as well put a #define KERNEL into it. Now the only thing would be that opt_global.h contains almost nothing, which makes me think that it could also disappear at some point... luigi -----------------------------------+------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO .
