I then recompiled the kernel without any issue. How can I tell if the change actually went through? Again, this driver has been statically built into the kernel. Is there a way to test that a change went through without have to setup a test environment? -- Ezra Taylor --001517511032c106480464675b0a Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello all:
