Fixes for radiobuttons instead of checkboxes and misc stuffs.

The patch does not fix this problem because I was not been able to reproduce
it.
"When configuring kernel options through gconfig,the check

Could you give me a preicse example or a screenshot ?

Its nothing you can really capture in a screenshot.  You cannot choose to
configure as a module, for checkbox's and radio buttons in gconfig there's just
on  and off, theres nothing in the middle (module). Perhaps its a limitation of
gtk, im not sure.

I wasn't able to reproduce the problems you described in a recent 2.6 kernel.

Are you still able to reproduce it?

Comment 4 Adrian Bunk 2005-07-03 04:34:09 UTC

I got no answer for my question last year whether this problem is still
reproducible.

Please reopen this bug if it is still reproducible.
