Hi ! I have found today /lib/dev-state/. In there are files which behaves as devices. I had a long time a problem that a device did not behave as it should.
The device is called /dev/isdn/isdninfo. Behavior: on cat /dev/isdn/isdninfo you should get out 6 lines of text. On status-change you get 6 new lines This is needed/used for getting status of internet-connection. On the normal device the cat is terminated at the time I go online. This resulted in crashs or undefined status of apps that are using this Now I tried cat /lib/dev-state/isdn/isdninfo and was really astonished. This one acts exactly as it should. with a link from there to /dev/isdninfo all apps are running fine. _So my question_ : What is going on there, any hints on how to solve that ? Is something configured wrong ? Where can I find ressources to read what is made wrong there ? Output of /dev/isdninfo: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- offline : idmap: capidrv-1 capidrv-1 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - chmap: 0 1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 drmap: 0 0 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 usage: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 flags: 0 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? phone: ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? online: idmap: capidrv-1 capidrv-1 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - chmap: 0 1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 drmap: 0 0 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 usage: 131 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 flags: 0 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? phone: 0191011 ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? -- ____________________ counter.li.org : #296567. machine: 181800 vdr-box : 87 ____________________ Please dont CC me, since if I have replied I'll watch the tread.
