[PATCH] add raw driver Kconfig entry for s390
From: Olaf Hering
Date: Sat May 13 2006 - 07:52:39 EST
From: Ihno Krumreich <ihno@xxxxxxx>
The raw module is not enabled on s390/s390x
During SLES9 and SLES10 development IBM filed bugs about the missing raw
driver. Avoid that for SLES11 by adding it to the other char driver
entries.
