Then your current stuff might just append to /etc/hotplug/usb.handmap when it's installed (via RPM, APT, whatever) and use fxload with a custom /etc/hotplug/usb/backpack script. But if RPM/APT/... sees that firmware directory it could say "get updated software". That'd let you have a solution that works for now, and it'd give you a clean upgrade to a better one later ... - Dave _______________________________________________ Linux-hotplug-devel mailing list http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net Linux-hotplug-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-hotplug-devel
