Hi folks, I'd like to announce a little tool for helping w/ creating .config's: I often have to spend lots of time to find out which configs to enable on a specific board, to get certain features (eg. network, sata, display, gpu, ...). Even worse: many options require other stuff enabled before even showing up. And when disabling unneeded stuff, it leaves lots of other things enabled. (we don't have some `apt autoremove` kconfig counterpart :(). I've decided to cope w/ that on a higher level and written a little config generator tool for that - here you can enable high level features (eg. 'network' or 'display', etc) and it will generate the actual .config: https://github.com/metux/kmct *MAYBE* this could become a good alternative to defconfig's ? have fun. --mtx -- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult Free software and Linux embedded engineering info@metux.net -- +49-151-27565287
