Ah, trying to break the working system instead of fixing the broken one? That's a tack worth taking; I already tried it, in some mild ways, with turning wscons-related stuff off. I'll try what you suggest, though I suspect (based on wsconsctl output in the full system and its similarity to what WSMUXIO_LIST_DEVICES in the application returns, and on the way unplugging and replugging makes it work) that it'll still work. Still, I've been surprised often enough.... /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
