I'm not on this list. I looked long and hard to find a place to report bugs in hotplugging and this was the only address I could find. My problem was that /proc/bus/usb wasn't being mounted. I examined the scripts and identified the problem in /etc/hotplug/usb.rc. The following code appears: if [ ! -f /proc/bus/usb/devices ]; then if grep -q "[ ]/proc/bus/usb[ ]" /etc/fstab ; then mount /proc/bus/usb else mount -t usbdevfs usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb fi fi I had a COMMENTED OUT entry for /proc/bus/usb in my /etc/fstab which caused the erronous selection of "mount /proc/bus/usb" as the command to mount. Perhaps something like if grep -q "^[^#]*[ ]/proc/bus/usb[ ]" /etc/fstab ; then would fix it, but I didn't think long and hard about this or test it (I just changed my fstab once I knew what was going on). _______________________________________________ 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
