If you could send me that C code, it would be useful. I am working with Lua, so more than likely whatever needs to be done is not possible in the language, but with example C code I could add the functionality. At the very least, it would help me to understand what needs to be done. Thanks, Matthew -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
