Hi all,
I want to rice my kernel and I have a question. In config.x86_64 there are blocks like this:
#
# Speakup console speech
#
CONFIG_SPEAKUP=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_ACNTSA=m
...
CONFIG_STAGING_MEDIA=y
...
I'm using this block as an example, but I would like to know if 'CONFIG_*=' were set to 'n', does that disable everything within that block from compiling, including defaults marked as '=m' and '=y'?
Thanks!

No. Each config option is separate.
Some options may depend on some other option, so blindly disabling options in the .config file will most likely mess up your build.
That's why you shouldn't edit the kernel .config by hand. Use e.g. "make menuconfig" or other kernel configuration utilty, that does some sanity checks for your configuration.

Good to know. Thanks, ooo!

Best strategy is to save the auto generated .config after you use nconfig to setup to your liking.
