patch for usb.rc
I've got this but to. The proposed fix helps on my x86 system too. This patch worked flawlessly on my system. The permissions were always set on the wrong device. Now there's no more need to unplug/plug in scanner to get it to work. I can verify this bug. Seen it around users who use usb-scanners and printers. usb.rc in the current version chmod's invalid path-names during coldboot. A fix is very needed. Is this going to be scheduled into portage? People with usb-scanners often needs this patch I noticed that when I went from kernel 2.6.11-r11 gentoo-sources to 2.16.12-r6 or r9 or 2.6.13 that my system now hangs if I do a coldplug on boot. For now I removed coldplug but I'll try this patch and see what happens. *** Bug 71180 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** sys-apps/hotplug is useless with any recent udev version, and 2.4 kernels are no longer supported. Unmerge it and move on. WONTFIX. |
