This is something I have been interested in for years and I have considered doing that. However, I think the general attitude at that time was "if you want udev use udev - its not that big" which it wasn't at that time. It is now. It would still not solve the libudev needed for Xorg, gvfs and the others, so I think that a mdevd project, or a proper udevd alternative, probably belongs outside busybox scope. -- Natanael Copa _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
