Subject: Small patch for hotplug scripts, success story
Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2001 10:33:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-linux-hotplug-97929561925475@msgid-missing> (raw)

Hi there!

Small success story after fixing one problem:

linux-2.4.0-final + modutils/hotplug patch
modutils-2.4.1

hotplugging works IF:

* usbmodules is removed: It gives NOTHING! at the moment, at least for
	my devices
* fix in hotplug.function:
	LISTER=`which ${1}modules 2>/dev/null`
  unfortunately if which is /usr/bin/which we get
	LISTER="which: no usbmodules in ...."
  because /usr/bin/which don't write this message to stderr, but stdout.
  Therefor no internal scanning is done and nothing works.
  Better would be
	LISTER=`type -p ${1}modules`
  since these scripts are bash and `type' is a buildin.

But after these two changes (remove usbmodules and fix which<->type -p) it
is working!

Best wishes


Norbert
