Hi, I'm working on a kernel 2.6 driver for Synaptics cPad. With kernel >= 2.6.7 'rmmod cpad' hangs if called from xterm. This is because Synaptics TouchPad driver for XFree86 holds the evdev device of the cPad open, even if read errors like ENODEV occur. When switching to console the device is closed an rmmod finally returns.
The same thing happens with usbhid.ko and an ordinary USB mouse, if I hold the evdev device open with less. driver_unregister in function usb_deregister does not return, although the disconnect function in the usb device driver already returned. Is this a bug, does the XFree driver need to be fixed, or both? Thanks, Jan ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
