Matt, Just mirroring pkgsrc using git is of course fine; actually it's great, but I wasn't referring to that but rather to those *possible* future plans of, I quote, do[ing] some sort of local mod thing in the future using another branch. Cheers, Alex Hornung

Hi, there's no direct substitute; instead just use make_dev properly :) No, there are no plans to bring it back ever, it is not needed anymore with devfs. If you need help fixing your kernel module(s) do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Alex Hornung 2009/8/13 Naoya Sugioka naoya.sugi

for fancy regexps... And also I'd prefer not having to rely on a daemon to do all the ruling, it's probably safer and easier to just load rules. As for chmod/chown, you can already use that; that hasn't much to do with the userland tool. Cheers, Alex 2009/7/6 Simon 'corecode' Schubert corec

really ever debugged anything like this, so I apologise for taking teeny tiny steps). I guess that means interrupts may not be getting through.. Also, running systat -vmstat i dont see an irq4 or ath0 entry...but i really am not sure if that was something that it helps to check. Cheers, Alex J

possibly commit (only if you deem it fit of course) the cardbus patch? It would really help people with machines with those devices in the machine at boot (and I guess also onboard). Again, thank you for all your help, Alex J Burke.
