Adding/compiling a module Kernel?


Hello,

I miss one module and on my distro there is not m-a.

gcc is installed. I would like to have a working mcs7830 module, which is not there. https://wiki.debian.org/ModuleAssistant

"All you have to do is edit the kernel .config and change
CONFIG_USB_NET_MCS7830=m to CONFIG_USB_NET_MCS7830=y. After that, run the
bitbake command again and your driver will work. This really should be the
default configuration for the kernel."

Would you know how to perform or look into a good direction?

thank you
