Hi Greg,
perhaps you remember me being a gentoo user wanting to switch to udev. Well I did so, but am having some problems:
1.) Minor one: Nodes for Nvidia (I am using binary display modules 1.0.5328) ar not created. I have to do it by hand each start-up (written into loacal.start.):
mknod /dev/nvidia0 c 195 0
mknod /dev/nvidiactl c 195 255
Heh, and you expect me to be able to modify a binary driver to work with
udev how? :)
You're on your own here...
No offense, but you guys sometimes really see things as too black and
white :)
Its only the high level api calls that are in binary object files, but
the main interface to the kernel is source that needs compiling. I have
a patch attached here that adds basic sysfs support via the class_simple
functions.
