- 2.5.40 xconfig and CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_PCMCIA

Via make xconfig, two entries show up even though there is only one in the .config file, and you cannot set the entry with xconfig even when CONFIG_PARPORT=y and CONFIG_PARPORT_PC=y. It is plain messed up. make menuconfig does not have this problem.

This is a known issue, (at least, I noticed it with 2.4.19). Try this patch:

Adrian - could you send the patch to Linus, please, as it hasn't gone in to 2.5.x yet - we'll need it fixed for 2.6.x
