Subject: Nouveau q?

Greetings;  I haven't built a kernel in half a coons age, so I thought I'd 
try.  Currently running 2.6.32-122-rtai, with the nouveau driver on this 
video card:
VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G96 [GeForce 9400 GT] (rev 
a1)

While configuring, I noted some WMI (don't run winderz, don't even have a 
windows box on in the property) options & turned them off, but that 
generates complaints from the make:

warning: (DRM_NOUVEAU) selects ACPI_WMI which has unmet direct dependencies 
(X86 && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES && ACPI)

warning: (DRM_NOUVEAU) selects MXM_WMI which has unmet direct dependencies 
(X86 && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES && ACPI_WMI)

I'll go back and turn them on, which should not be a problem other than the 
wasted build time measured in hours on this machine, a quad core phenom.  
Can the make configs turn this back on automatically?

Thanks.

Cheers, Gene
