    Keeps track of EVERY kernel module that has ever been probed. Useful for those of us who make localmodconfig :)

  • But it will do just that—keep the module that are present. And if something isn’t loaded, and you didn’t add it manually (or by using a helper program, like modprobe-db), then it won’t be there. Which means that, for example, if you were to plug in some previously not used webcam, or a Bluetooth dongle, or a disk formatted with a previously unused file system, etc., you won’t have the modules for it.

  • i use it without issues; it's greatly reduced my kernel compile time (from over 50 minutes to around 20 minutes). i wrote a short guide to getting started with it: https://github.com/flexibeast/guides/blob/master/minimal-gentoo-kernel.md
