possibly off-topic, but i wanted to use "systool" (part of the sysfsutils package) to display various aspects of /sys, and it seems that that command is annoyingly limited. for instance, if i run simply $ systool i'll get a terse list of all of the supported busses, classes, devices and modules. but, from there, there's no way to select only one of those categories for output -- a limitation i find surprising. in the man page, the synopsis for systool lists: systool [options [device]] but there's virtually no option that's valid without some following argument. no point going into excruciating detail, it just seems that systool doesn't support what one would imagine are fairly obvious requests. or am i missing something? and is there any other tool that displays aspects of /sys similarly? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
