    I'll try to ensure no trailing whitespace and use the following elisp:

(defun linux-c-mode ()
  "C mode with adjusted defaults for use with the Linux kernel."
  (interactive)
  (c-mode)
  (setq c-indent-level 8)
  (setq c-brace-imaginary-offset 0)
  (setq c-brace-offset -8)
  (setq c-argdecl-indent 8)
  (setq c-label-offset -8)
  (setq c-continued-statement-offset 8)
  (setq indent-tabs-mode nil)
  (setq tab-width 8))


    As per the Linux coding style guide so the code I add has no
    actual tabs but sets of 8 spaces for "tabbing".

    As per the now famous  http://www.jwz.org/doc/tabs-vs-spaces.html.

    Is this okay ?

    Cheers,

    Doug
