Perhaps, my ignorance is really shining through, but your explanation doesn't help a bit. Obviously, we all realize that the hotplug package is obsolete. And if the Udev devs are "actively maintaining" why does all this custom patching need to be going on? Do the Udev devs not do good work, are they too slow to keep up, do they not support current hardware, platforms or the current Linux kernel? I guess I'm wondering why if the Udev devs are "actively maintaining", do we need patched kernels and an inordinately complex installation of the Udev package? -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 01:22:01 up 102 days, 10:46, 3 users, load average: 1.34, 1.35, 0.97 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
