I just encountered a user who was getting an error when trying to compile a new kernel. This as during the config step. The error was: config: line 238: syntax error Line 238 was: device pcm # SB16 PCI which was the last line in the file. I then suggested then they add a CRLF to the end of the file (so that the last line was an empy line). config then ran successfully. Is this a known problem? If so, I'll add a note to the handbook so newbies don't get caught out like that. It caused this person (and no doubt others) much annoyance and trouble.
