Hello.

This was intentional - wanted it to
print in a single line. You see a space
there for that reason.
Should the second KERN_WARNING be removed
then, or what is the problem exactly?

I personally don't think so.
snd-pcsp has the excact copy of the pcspkr
code built-in, so I thought pcspkr can be
obsoleted in the future. From that point of
view, having snd-pcsp enabled and not even
seeing pcspkr in a menuconfig is fine.
While otherwise (you ocasionally enable
pcspkr and don't even see snd-pcsp then)
is not fine.
You mentioned earlier that you would like
to be able to swap those drivers dynamically,
but... what's the use? With such a dependancy
added, many people will not even know about
snd-pcsp as they already have pcspkr enabled.
