Something for 3.5 (2)?



What's about bzip2 for better compression of the source/binaries?
Is it possible to sort the drivers alphanumeric in the GENERIC-config of the
Kernel?
"Why should we do this? You build a kernel only 1 time."
Yeah..why? What's happen if the drivers are sorted? Nothing but the config
is better readable and (I personaly) need less concentration.
Example for my Router with an VIA- and a Netgear-NIC:

#tx*    at pci? dev ? function ?                # SMC 83C170 EPIC ethernet
#tl*    at pci? dev ? function ?                # Compaq Thunderlan ethernet
vr*     at pci? dev ? function ?                # VIA Rhine ethernet
#wb*    at pci? dev ? function ?                # Winbond W89C840F ethernet
#sf*    at pci? dev ? function ?                # Adaptec AIC-6915 ethernet
#sis*   at pci? dev ? function ?                # SiS 900/7016 ethernet

 So it will be more logical (for me) if the drivers generaly are sorted.
Same thing if you've a look into the sounddriver-section of the config.
