I checked the "make menuconfig" items for linux-2.6.8 and looked at the files.
For linux-2.4.26:
$ find . -name "*dbri*"
./drivers/sbus/audio/dbri.c
./drivers/sbus/audio/dbri.h
but nothing like this in linux-2.6.8. With addition to "no smp for sparc32" 
makes linux-2.6 inferior to linux-2.4 on sparc32 (at least on a SS20).
Additionally, the config items in 2.6 are very confusing for me. What item 
would I choose for the typical sunmouse? Serial or PS/2 or nothing?
