    Subjectkernel 2.6.0, wrong Kconfig directives

    Hi folks,

    Installing 2.6.0 I've found that some kernel options directives are wrong,
    in fact the option turns out to be always enabled. I don't think this is
    a desired behaviour.

    Sorry for the format, yes I know it's ugly :) but I'll leave to you the proper
    solution :) so I can't make a proper patch.


    - IPV6_SCTP___ option is always turned on

    ./net/sctp/Kconfig:

    8: config IPV6_SCTP__
    9: tristate
    10: default y if IPV6=n
    11: default IPV6 if IPV6
    12:
    13: config IP_SCTP
    14: tristate "The SCTP Protocol (EXPERIMENTAL)"
    15: depends on IPV6_SCTP__


    I think something is wrong here, why the 'default y if IPV6=n' ???


    - INPUT_MOUSEDEV option is always turned on

    ./drivers/input/Kconfig:

    27: config INPUT_MOUSEDEV
    28: tristate "Mouse interface" if EMBEDDED
    29: default y
    30: depends on INPUT

    43: config INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX
    44: bool "Provide legacy /dev/psaux device" if EMBEDDED
    45: default y
    46: depends on INPUT_MOUSEDEV


    the tristate directive is ignored in most default configurations since EMBEDDED
    is not set, however this doesn't allow to disable INPUT_MOUSEDEV and
    INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX. I don't suppose this is right.


    - SOUND_GAMEPORT option is always turned on

    ./drivers/input/gameport/Kconfig

    22: config SOUND_GAMEPORT
    23: tristate
    24: default y if GAMEPORT!=m
    25: default m if GAMEPORT=m

    line 24 is definetly wrong, option is enabled if GAMEPORT=n.


    Bye
