Hi all, I'm aware of at least half a dozen programs and daemons that read and parse /usr/share/hwdata/pnp.ids to convert PNP_IDS to actual vendor names. Although this file will be in hot cache at login, it does seem a waste of a lot of duplicated parsing and hashing code. I'm aware the PNP_ID database is used in the hwdb, and hashed in an efficient way. I'm wondering if external applications (like gnome-settings-daemon) could use the data there.
Ideas welcome, thanks, Richard. _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
