Udev is the replacement for the deprecated devfs system for managing the /dev filesystem. There is a udev guide on gentoo.org, and also many threads on this list about udev. That, and some googling will get you better answers than I'll be able to provide off the cuff. -- Daniel Barr http://www.danbarr.com/ Asst Manager, Network & Security Mercer Insurance Group -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
