Ah! I see you are from Redhat. So who, if any, would be likely to fix this?
This might not be the right list to ask this question, but since I already started a thread -- how do I make sure the same config options as the Fedora 9 kernel are turned on when I make a vanilla kernel build? Well other than checking each one individually in menuconfig.
Thanks, SK
