The funny thing is, that it doesn't for me. If you conpare the trace I sent and the one that Artur sent we see this difference Feb 11 00:12:42 blabluga udev[6599]: configured rule in '/etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules[98]' applied, 'tun' becomes 'net/%k' I checked and I don't have /etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules on my system, but it seems to me that it is this file that is making the translation from misc to net. And it is this translation that I am wondering about the validity of. To explain in other words. When /sbin/hotplug is called by the kernel it is called for a misc device. Somewhere in userspace (/etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules) this is changed to a tun device. It seems that this change is causing the warning. That is a change in userspace, interpretated by another part of userspace. It doesn't sound much like a kernel problem to me. And in any case, I ask again, is there a bug other than a spurious debug line logged somewhere? -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
