This is not answering my questions. If anything from above would be valid (like others have asked you for bugs and already mentioned that commit count alone don't say anything) we wouldn't just be talking about switching default for *new* installations. Instead we would need to talk about ditching eudev in general... So for me it still looks like change for change's sake without a real reason. -- Regards, Thomas Deutschmann / Gentoo Linux Developer C4DD 695F A713 8F24 2AA1 5638 5849 7EE5 1D5D 74A5
