The new sound driver simply doesn't support : menuconfig. Now all I have to do is go through the 100 or so : possibilities for IRQ, DMA and I/O settings! <Now would be a good time to tune out> When I was your age, we didn't have menu config and xconfig! We had to configure the whole kernel with those stupid prompts! And if you messed up on the last question (Kernel profiling? What the hell is that?!), you had to CTRL-C it and start all over! Be we had it easy. Before my time, they didn't HAVE config!
