Hi, There is a problem with the hotplug e-build, in the startup script. The following diff will make things clear: 25c25 < if [ error ] ; then --- > if [ $error -ne 0 ] ; then 40c40 < if [ error ] ; then --- > if [ $error -ne 0 ] ; then As you can see, the [ error ] clause means 'is the string "error" non-blank, whereas it should be non-zero. This has the consequence that the hotplug service doesn't start at all, and will only tell you so when there is an actual error. Then there is one thing I would like it do to extra: create a sample config file for the services it starts (pci.rc and usb.rc). Since only usb.rc has any parameters that can be overridden, this means only one file is needed: ----- /etc/conf.d/usb.conf #If you have a USB mouse, you probably want to enable the following, #and change your XFree86 configuration so that it uses /dev/input/mice #as the mouse input device #X11_USBMICE_HACK=true #Put any modules here that you want to be loaded by the USB hotplug system #STATIC_MODULE_LIST= ----- Thanks, Wout.
Hi, Wout: Your comment looks like one unwrapped line of text. This makes reading the diff, erm... impossible? ;^) Since I think that I saw the same thing in the other bugs that you posted, it would be interesting to know whether the probliem lies with bugzilla, your browser, or my browser. I'm leaning towards a problem with your browser, but that's just my gut feeling.
Hey Arcady, Yes, it's a browser problem. I use Konqueror 3... Anyway, I fixed the bug myself now, so no problem there :)
