Subject: 2.4.17pre2: devfs: devfs_mk_dir(printers): could not append to dir: dffe45c0 "", err: -17
Date: Sat, 1 Dec 2001 10:20:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E16A6LR-00042s-00@mrvdom02.schlund.de> (raw)

After upgrading from 2.4.16 to 2.4.17pre2 I got the following message in 
dmesg:

.
parport0: assign_addrs: aa5500ff(80)
parport_pc: Via 686A parallel port: io=0x378
devfs: devfs_mk_dir(printers): could not append to dir: dffe45c0 "", err: -17
lp0: using parport0 (polling).
.

or 

devfs: devfs_register(nvidiactl): could not append to parent, err: -17
devfs: devfs_register(nvidia0): could not append to parent, err: -17


with 2.4.16 and before the message was:

devfs: devfs_register(): device already registered: "nvidia0"


Why has this changed, and what is actually happen? My system runs fine.

greetings

Christian Bornträger
