This is a know problem. The problem is: we don't know yet
if a given USB configuration is a USB card, a USB kernel support (i.e. USBFS, OHCI, EHCI...). The solution is to modify the configuration rules, adding the USB_CARDS (as Eric proposed for ISA_CARDS). But this rules change can be done only after CML2 is included into the kernel.

Eric: Rule error ?

I know. I don't know if I should autodetect APM support. On some machine APM crash the kernel and in some more machine you must tune the APM options.
I'm not an APM expert, so I need some help.

I have some problem with these rules. I should find a solution on how to detect these on a x86 wihout breaking the other archs. Probably the best solution is to change the rules: the floppy disk is linked to CONFIG_FLOPPY (or an other non conflicting names) and the various archs controller configuration is derives from FLOPPY and ARCH_*.

Hard to detect these 'software devices'. Some suggestions?

hmm. I forgot these rules during the conversions. [but ATARI PS/2 conflict with this]
