To be sure that i did that you want me to: i plug device in, run application that use it, close application, unplug device, and then plug device in (and i didn't reload the kernel module during this), run app again.. Yes, i have the same string in this case. btw, kernel 2.6.29-rc2. -- Best regards, Klimov Alexey -- 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
