From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: David Brownell Date: Fri, 16 Feb 2001 21:47:02 +0000 Subject: Re: 2001-02-14 release of hotplug scripts Message-Id: List-Id: References: In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-hotplug@vger.kernel.org Adam Richter provided a better answer to the problem (second bullet) than the specific workaround (first bullet). His patch is now in CVS. I could start to get used to seeing things "just work" when powering up a USB-oriented Linux laptop ... and they "just work" so much faster than with that Other "OS" that can't quite decide whether it's got to reinstall drivers each time! :-) - Dave > From: "Bill Nottingham" > To: "Greg KH" > Cc: > Sent: Wednesday, February 14, 2001 4:43 PM > Subject: Re: 2001-02-14 release of hotplug scripts > > > > Greg KH (greg@kroah.com) said: > > > - insistence on having a writable /tmp so bash works properly > > > - Fixes some problems seen with Redhat 7 systems when the > > > partial USB setup in /etc/rc.sysinit was not disabled.
