Did you look at the chapter in the book, Linux Device Drivers, third edition (free online) that describes what is needed for your driver to do in order for the device node to be automatically created for you from udev? If so, what is not working with that implementation? Do you have a pointer to your driver that shows the problem you are having? thanks, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
