How about something like
if (cyrix_present()) { #ifdef CONFIG_PCI if (!check_for_bx()) { do_cyrix_probe(); ... } else { printk("Cyrix CPU and Intel BX chip set detected, not probing for Cyrix problem\n"); #else printk("Cyrix CPU detected but PCI not configured, can't check for Intel BX so won't probe for Cyrix problem\n"); #endif
? Users who don't like the warnings can just look at the pretty penguin. :) ___ Trevor Johnson
