We could add a kernel dialog launched via a 'Kernel' button located in the top tool bar. However, I think we need to be careful about the options we provide. I know nothing about the kernel configuration stuff, but somehow I suspect it can get fairly complex quite quickly. I would need to have a chat with Matthew to understand what the additions he proposes entail and how to translate them into a GUI. 30258 2 msm-oss 2013-02-28 15:08:26 +0000 (In reply to comment #1) > I am not opposed to bringing in some kernel-related options to GTK Hob.

Well launching menuconfig is one option which IS very complex but ultimately what we need to provide. I believe there is a GTK based menuconfig that we could use to match with the look and feel of hob Also, we could offer to switch to a different defconfig (a predefined set of config options) that is anywhere on the local disk or in the layers. 30322 3 belen.barros.pena 2013-03-01 10:56:15 +0000 Once again, I am not sure our existing GTK Hob is the tool to deliver the full feature. Hob was conceived with a limited scope: a simple tool to assist new Yocto Project users in the process of running simple builds (the kind of builds you start with). I think we should consider tackling this as part of the web interface project. We, however, could think of a limited set of basic kernel-related options to bring into Hob as part of the 1.5 release. 43307 4 belen.barros.pena 2014-05-14 16:29:45 +0000 At this point, work will take place on toaster, not Hob, so marking as won't fix.
