Right. Checking if udev is active is trivial by looking for /dev/.udev. Anything else required before disabling the /proc/bus/usb/ mounting? > This is the sort of thing we should announce the deprecation, and > schedule for etch+1. Actually, I believe it is enough to add logic in the code to only disable it when it make sense, and then leave that code in the scripts while we wait for it to become obsolete. > By that time, we will only have to support kernels that have both > usbfs AND udev-class /dev/bus/usb support, and maybe Debian will > even have to decide to go with mandatory udev (and udev will be > trustable and stable enough to actually be mandatory, anyway ;-) ). I guess this is the time such code become obsolete. :) Friendly, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
