It seems the latest change was March 10 which was not long ago. As I |
| 41 |
mentioned earlier, I have plugged in USB sticks, cameras, printers and |
| 42 |
such pretty regular. The eudev fork has worked fine for me. Servers |
| 43 |
seem to worry less about *new stuff* since they usually run with what |
| 44 |
they have at boot time anyway. Heck, mdev may would work fine for you |
| 45 |
too. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
It seems based on reading the -dev list that udev is about to introduce |
| 48 |
some more changes. I'm hoping those don't affect me either. I just |
| 49 |
noticed that someone else on this list has ran into the news message for |
| 50 |
it too and has questions already. |
