This is an area it'd be good to see RedHat, SuSE, and others agree, but I'd take SuSE as a start. Also, you're discarding the kernel setting for $DEBUG; maybe it shouldn't be there, but if you want to discard that feature a kernel patch should happen too. > - better check if usb was successfully activated That is, /proc/bus/usb/001 directory exists? Yes, better! There's still the issue of needing to get USB partly started _very_ early in boot, for systems with only USB input devices. Have you looked at what issues would come up from (optionally) running /etc/hotplug/usb.rc from system startup, /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit (or whatever)? > - add two new /etc/sysconfig/hotplug variables: > * use HOTPLUG_USB_HOSTCONTROLLER_LIST to load a fixed list of host > controller drivers > * use HOTPLUG_USB_STATIC_MODULES to load a fixed list of drivers > (for input) Those seem like good things to keep in an /etc/sysconfig file (and somewhere you had a Debian version, too). I'll see about merging this, most of it looks fine. - Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Etnus, makers of TotalView, The best thread debugger on the planet.
