Subject: [2.6.3] Sysfs breakage - tun.ko
Date: Mon, 01 Mar 2004 19:48:28 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4043938C.9090504@lbsd.net> (raw)

Hi,

Loading tun.ko module breaks on sysfs...

 > [root@localhost misc]# pwd
 > /sys/class/misc
 > [root@localhost misc]# ls
 > dac960_gam  device-mapper  net/tun  psaux
 > [root@localhost misc]# cd net\/tun
 > bash: cd: net/tun: No such file or directory
 > [root@localhost misc]#


Why not just make it in misc? why net/tun seeing as everything else is 
just dumped there. Patch below.
