To: Andrea Barisani , Greg KH Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, linux-hotplug-devel@lists.sourceforge.net In-Reply-To: <20040102225627.GB24688@sole.infis.univ.trieste.it> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org The new dri drivers I am working on will require hotplug when they are finished. They use the hotplug event to reset secondary adapters and get the monitor EDID/DDC data. The drivers don't require udev but will use it if present. --- Andrea Barisani wrote: > On Fri, Jan 02, 2004 at 12:19:05PM -0800, Greg KH wrote: > > On Fri, Jan 02, 2004 at 11:10:51AM +0100, Andrea Barisani wrote: > > > > > > Hi everybody and happy new year! > > > > > > Just one simple question about a very simple matter that right now > > > I can't figure out: does udev need hotplug package presence? ===== Jon Smirl jonsmirl@yahoo.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
