It scans the same subsystems. I also tried on four different systems to boot with and without discover and compared the lsmod | sort | uniq output to find not a single difference. But I do not have a real proof, no. I agree with you that unless this is proven, discover probably has to stay. Maybe hotplug could be started before discover, and if discover finds 0 modules to load, it could disable itself on future boots or print an appropriate message? > > Moreover, X configuration uses discover 2.x anyway. > > X uses whichever version of discover is installed. argh. overlooked that. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer, admin, user, and author `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
