If not, should it be phased out? I'm referencing a use case with VirtualBox that looks for /proc/bus/usb by default and will use that instead of libusb for USB device access. This has caused issues for people wishing to use VirtualBox on Fedora in that they cannot use USB devices without a little tinkering. They either have to remove the /proc/bus/usb mount from rc.sysinit or adjust their fstab to allow other users access. I'll even go as far as providing a patch! *gasp* Most of you probably don't care about VirtualBox and would rather us use libvirt, but some folks use different software. Mike
