Subject: [PATCH] Sparc doesn't build without input support / can't turn off VTs
Date: Wed, 19 May 2004 00:27:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040518232720.GO5289@earth.li> (raw)

Hi.

Tried to build 2.6.6 for my Sparc LX today, which runs headless. Turned
off all the input support and it failed to build - VT support couldn't
be disabled and this needs input support it seems.

Patch below allows disabling VT support for Sparc. I think it might also
want a "select INPUT" in the "config VT" section?

J.
