Are you sure the person who wrote this is using devd? The patch I mention was flagged as experimental in FreeBSD. In fact it didn't even work without some changes. See my patches in freebsd-x11 and the discussions that follow: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-x11/2014-February/014158.html http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-x11/2014-February/014159.html http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-x11/2014-February/014160.html http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-x11/2014-February/014161.html > I hadn't any problems with HAL yet on kfreebsd-10, though I'm not > hot-plugging anything. One could say this is not a great achievement on HAL's part, considering its only purpose when it comes to X is hot-plugging ;-) Can you reproduce #736765 ? > BTW what's up with the defines here? It's just that X needs to know it's using a backend for device autoconfig. If it's not HAL, then whatever else. -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
