Hello all,
Our drivers used to work fine with the older kernels. I am currently
running 2.6.17 on fedora core 5 and all the /dev entries (related to the
card) vanish after reboot. I understand that udev should dynamically be
able to create the device nodes upon the installation of the driver. I
read everything possible about the differences between devfs and udev.
udev, by document description, should automatically create device nodes,
but it doesn't. Is there a workaround? I do have mkdev program that
creates the device nodes. But that needs to be executed everytime
there's a reboot. I do not even want to keep a script that runs during
the boot. I would like to modify our driver code so that it works on all
the newer sources without having to fiddle around with it.
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dinesh
