That means that all versions of depmod will break on kernel 2.4.0 if you have any modules that use MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(usb). Incompatible changes to an ABI structure without notification immediately prior to a major kernel release, yech! If you have usb modules then stay on kernel 2.4.0-prerelease or compile usb without modules or wait until I can test and release modutils 2.4.1. The usb hotplug utilities will also have to change to handle the new table layout. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
