FS#2828 - udev/hotplug doesn't handle removable devices when hotplugged
|
Details
For newer kernels, hotplug events don't reach hal in the
correct order anymore. Newer kernels should have
/sbin/udevsend as hotplug multiplexer in
/proc/sys/kernel/hotplug.
Adding this code to /etc/start_udev puts /sbin/udevsend in the correct entry in /proc. This code should be located after udev has been started: case "$(uname -r)" in 2.6.[0-9]|2.6.[0-9][!0-9]*) ;; *) echo "/sbin/udevsend" > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug ;; esac This makes sure older kernels that don't suffer this problem, but suffer from having udevstart as hotplug multiplexer, to use the old behaviour. |
