Hi, Thanks for your help, but I think you're wrong: First, I never trust hotplug or other tools like this: I do all insmod by hand, so I know all drivers have been loaded. What is hotplug supposed to do (but wasn't in previous driver version...) ? The second thing I see is that it used to work, before 2.4.21-rc2. The only difference is in the kernel driver, so it should work with no user-space tool, as it used to. If not, the driver is now buggy... Regards. -- Jocelyn Mayer
