i know well enough that, if i write and load a driver that allocates a device major number and one or more minor numbers, i can see the allocated major number via /proc/devices. but is there a userspace way to see the minor number(s)? or, as LDD3 implies, it's my job to just *know* what those would have been? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
