Who is this 'greg' person? He's the central developer of kernel USB stuff. Here's his post to the usb-users list from a few weeks back: I've just packaged up the latest Linux hotplug scripts into a release, which can be found at: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=17679 Or from your favorite kernel.org mirror at: kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/hotplug-2004_01_05.tar.gz or for those who like bz2 packages: kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/hotplug-2004_01_05.tar.bz2 I've also packaged up some pre-built (and signed) Red Hat FC 1 based rpms: kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/hotplug-2004_01_05-1.noarch.rpm kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/hotplug-base-2004_01_05-1.noarch.rpm The source rpm is available if you want to rebuild it for other distros or versions of Red Hat at: kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/hotplug-2004_01_05-1.src.rpm kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/hotplug-2004_01_05-1.src.rpm The main web site for the linux-hotplug project can be found at: http://linux-hotplug.sf.net/ which contains lots of documentation on the whole linux-hotplug process. This release is recommended for _anyone_ using the 2.6.0 and beyond kernels who is still using hotplug scripts older than 2003_08_05, as a number of changes have been made in order to support the 2.6 kernel properly. The release is still backwards compatible with 2.4, so there is no need to worry about upgrading. The full ChangeLog extract since the last release is included below for those who want to know everything that's been changed, and who to blame for them :) thanks, greg k-h Brian Brunner brian.t.brunner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (610)796-5838 >>> ow.mun.heng@xxxxxxx 02/17/04 09:06PM >>> > -----Original Message----- > From: shrike-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:shrike-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Brian T.
