Hmm ... is there some simple example module on the web, doing both? I probably wouldn't have seen a notice, and haven't had time to do more than glance at the persistence patch in the modutils FTP area. Was the output format text, or binary? Tools could be easier if they could rely on text. It'd be nice if Linux had a better solution than distro-specific config files to hold device configuration data, and I could see the module persistence stuff evolving into that. It'd sure help make hotplug policy software be more portable if it could rely on all hotpluggable drivers (network, media, ...) using such a scheme. - Dave _______________________________________________ Linux-hotplug-devel mailing list Linux-hotplug-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-hotplug-devel
