Subject: kcontrol: Causes delay during boot Package: kcontrol Version: 4:3.4.3-3 Severity: normal
The script /etc/hotplug/usb/logitechmouse causes a long delay during boot, while udev waits 'for /dev to by fully populated'. From my tests, it seems that DEVICE isn't even set in the script's environment, so the script is timing out while waiting for a file with an empty file to be created. I suggest adding something like this to the top of the script: test -n "$DEVICE" || exit Or better yet, removing the script entirely: what is the purpose of the script, and why is it in kcontrol? Why should mouse devices have their group set to plugdev? Why does this only apply to Logitech mice, and why only for users of KDE? :) In fact I just noticed the presence of /etc/udev/logitechmouse.rules that does the same thing (even though `find /dev -group plugdev` returns no results--should I file a separate bug for that?). Perhaps the script should exit immediatly if it detects that /dev/.udev exists? -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (530, 'testing'), (520, 'unstable'), (510, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-k7 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages kcontrol depends on: pn kdebase-data Not found. pn kdelibs4c2a Not found. ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libaudio2 1.7-2 The Network Audio System (NAS).
