With egrep, your right. I don't know why, but see this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# grep -i "Elite 3D" /proc/fb [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# egrep -i "Elite 3D" /proc/fb [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cat /proc/fb | egrep -i "Elite 3D" [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cat -s /proc/fb | egrep -i "Elite 3D" 0 Elite 3D [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cat -s /proc/fb | grep -i "Elite 3D" 0 Elite 3D I need to use "cat -s" otherwise it doesn't work > You can also remove one sed (untested): > afb_devs=fb`/bin/grep -i "Elite 3D" /proc/fb | /bin/sed 's/\ .*//'` no I cannot because there might be more than one line in /proc/fb ie: --- 0 Elite 3D 1 Elite 3D --- and both devices should be inizialized. but yes I could do it with only one sed: /bin/sed 's/\([0-9]\)\ .*/fb\1/' > Those are two programs less to execute... > And maybe put case for 2.4.* and 2.6.* so not both have to be executed.
