Here's an exact description of what I'm trying to accomplish... 1) Receive hardware interrupt from monitor change. 2) Device driver generates a hotplug event to trigger running of a root priv userspace helper 3) Helper uses sysfs attribute write to notify when it is done. 4) Device driver generates a netlink? event to hal to indicate that new state is available. I've been reading the hal documentation. I can't see how I can use a netlink event to trigger running of the root mode helper app. I'm still trying to locate any write ups on how to use netlink. -- Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
