Looking at the video drivers, I found that only half of these ones have this parameter. Then, I think it should be better to remove it everywhere!
OK, that might be a solution too. :)
In fact, setting the video number in the right driver before plugging any video device is rather complicated while setting udev rules is easy and has to be done only once...
No, its not like that. You only add the strings like options gspca video_nr=1 in your /etc/modprobe.conf, and you are done. ALSA went even further and introduced the option "order", so that you write: options snd order=snd-intel8x0,snd-hda-intel for example. So, from some point of view, this is actually easier than the udev solution (eg. I always did that and never played with udev :), but indeed, having two ways of doing the same thing is usually confusing, so I am not trying to talk you into applying my patch. :) If there is an intention to deprecate the "video_nr" thing, then it certainly doesn't apply. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
