Hi,
I just upgrade to pf-3.7.3 and I notice I have lots of hid_* modules, loaded auomaticly, which I don't really needed. I try disabled them in menuconfig but seems thay are secect by some other options, I can't find out whisch one. I just need basic/common HID stuff.
Code:
# lsmod | grep -i hid
hid_monterey            1490  0
hid_microsoft           2756  0
hid_logitech            6926  0
hid_ezkey               1323  0
hid_cypress             1811  0
hid_chicony             2122  0
hid_cherry              1458  0
hid_belkin              1607  0
hid_apple               5011  0
hid_a4tech              1885  0
hid_generic             1042  0
usbhid                 22467  0
usbcore               121022  6 uvcvideo,usb_storage,ohci_hcd,ehci_hcd,usbhid,xhci_hcd

emc,

You need to double check your .config :wink: Looking at it I found a few in your grep -i hid that are set.

Code:
CONFIG_HID_CYPRESS=m
CONFIG_HID_EZKEY=m
CONFIG_HID_CHICONY=m
CONFIG_HID_BELKIN=m
CONFIG_HID_CHERRY=m

Yes, I see them in .config. I just try understand if they found there by accidance or due some settings in menuconfig. I use '/' in menuconfig try to locate tem but if I navigate there, nothing is selected and I don't see any of these drivers. I dont know if manual edit of config is good idea...

Yes that's his problem - if you bothered to research your answer properly instead of racing to be first to post you'd see they cannot be disabled.

Maybe it's the way I initiate genkernel because I don't experience any extraneous modules - only what I set with menuconfig :?

CONFIG_EXPERT=y will allow you to disable those modules. Though I find it weird that they get loaded automatically.
