No, udev will not contain such a package. Please realize that there are at least 3 different, popular syslog programs, and probably a zillion other, not as popular ones. As well as a number of big, expensive syslog programs from companies that are very willing to have you pay for this kind of feature :) Use udevinfo to do a mapping from kernel name to udev-known name. That's all the documentation you need. thanks, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tell us your software development plans!
