I've sent additional emails to the correct list this time outlining some other problems. I suspect they, too, are hotplug related. (In future I'll read the documentation available in its entirety before pestering people. However, the way udev works is constantly changing and the problem I was seeing was seemingly inconsistent with an otherwise working udev, which made me think the problem was more deep seated..) -- Cheers, Alistair.

Do you provide hooks for handling /etc/hotplug.d/? We are on the way of getting rid of that directory and recent udev versions don't handle that by default anymore. If you don't know, read the udev RELEASE-NOTES.

There are no "stock" udev rules anymore. That's probably the issue, all of the distros made their own, so we provide them in the tarball.

You shouldn't. You also might want to take this to the linux-hotplug-devel mailing list, as that's the proper place for udev issues. good luck, greg k-h - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

What rules file are you using? 067 should work just fine for you, it is for a lot of Gentoo and SuSE users right now, on 2.6.12. thanks, greg k-h - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
udev-067 and 2.6.12?
Hi, I just tried upgrading udev 053 to 067 on a 2.6.12 system and although the system booted, firmware_class failed to upload the firmware for my wireless card, prism54 was no longer auto loaded, etc. Even manually loading the driver didn't help. Any reason why 067 wouldn't work with 2.6.12? Do you have to do something special with hotplug prior to upgrading? -- Cheers, Alistair. 'No sense being pessimistic, it probably wouldn't work anyway.'
