All of the above? Rationale being (1) is required to check against the kernel you're supposedly using, (2) for the kernel you definitely are using, and (3) to make sure people remember. An alternative to (2) and (3), though is to add a check to the udev initscript. Cheers, -- Arun Raghavan http://arunraghavan.net/ (Ford_Prefect | Gentoo) & (arunsr | GNOME)
