[Laptoplinux-devel] Re: another config

[Nathan O. <nat...@gm...>]

This whole kernel configuration stuff is great fun, isn't it? :-)

Come to think of it, maybe we should just go with a NetBSD base.
Everything's in the kernel by default, but the system is still clean.
That's what all successful projects do. They barely get off the
ground, and when they're bracing themselves for a littl success, they
throw away all their work and start over. If that isn't a good idea, I
don't know what is! </drunken rant>

<sober> Ugh.... you know how drunk you were when you can't even see
the start tag for the drunken rant section. I think I'll casually
forget to write a close tag for the sober section.
