| I just graded my kernel from 2.6.3-r1 to 2.6.5-r1 and now I don't have the option to compile the module dpt_i2o. Does anyone have any ideas. |

Do you have | Code: | | CONFIG_CLEAN_COMPILE=y |
set in .config? ("Code maturity level options/Select only drivers expected to compile cleanly")
Note that the official 2.6.5 kernel has an old, unusable version of the driver. The gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.5-r1 version is a beta from the maintainer.
Finally, I've patched the drivers/scsi/Makefile line 58 to look like this:
| Code: | | obj-$(CONFIG_SCSI_DPT_I2O) += dpt_i2o.o dpti2oscsi2.o |
where it was just
| Code: | | obj-$(CONFIG_SCSI_DPT_I2O) += dpt_i2o.o |
I haven't bothered asking but it looks necessary from what I can tell in the driver code. |

| I tried what you show above but still it doesn't compile. The option is not even there when I do menuconfig although it does show M in .config. |

That's odd since that isn't a loadable module!
How did you upgrade from 2.6.3 to 2.6.5-r1? Did you copy over the .config and run make oldconfig? |

| Yes, I copied it over and used genkernel to build. So, if it is not in .config how do I compile the module |

Manual configuration will let you select "Code maturity level options/Select only drivers expected to compile cleanly".
The driver is located at "Drivers/SCSI/SCSI Low-level Drivers/Adaptec I2O". |

That what I was talking about earlier. When I run there is no Adaptec I20 driver to choose. |

The line
| Code: | | CONFIG_CLEAN_COMPILE=y |
in your 2.6.5 config disables access to the Adaptec I2O driver.
In menuconfig you need to deselect
| Code: | | Code maturity level options/Select only drivers expected to compile cleanly |
Once that's cleared, you can find the driver in the place listed above. |
