This release is recommended for _anyone_ using the 2.6.0 and beyond kernels who is still using hotplug scripts older than 2003_08_05, as a number of changes have been made in order to support the 2.6 kernel properly. The release is still backwards compatible with 2.4, so there is no need to worry about upgrading. The full ChangeLog extract since the last release is included below for those who want to know everything that's been changed, and who to blame for them :) thanks, greg k-h -------------- Mon Jan 5 2004 kroah - 2004_01_05 release Mon Oct 13 2003 kroah - sysfs entries for usb devices are in hex. Patch from Andrey Borzenkov - add input.rc and input.agent for input systems. Patch from Andrey Borzenkov Tue Oct 7 2003 kroah - keep already loaded modules from causing messages in the syslog. - added firmware.agent file from Marcel Holtmann - Lots of patches from Bill Nottingham to try to sync back up with the Red Hat hotplug package: - hotplug-2003_08_05-networkdown.patch Don't bring up network devices if the network service isn't started. - hotplug-2002_04_01-joydev.patch Some extra joystick devices. - hotplug-2003_08_05-tunnel.patch Exclude tunl*/tun*/tap* from being brought up via hotplug events - hotplug-2002_04_01-wacom.patch Some wacom tablets for evdev. - hotplug-2002_04_01-usblcd.patch usblcd mappings - hotplug-2002_04_01-inhotplug.patch Set IN_HOTPLUG environment variable as something users can check in case they don't want some interface to be automatically brought up. - hotplug-2003_08_05-updfstab.patch Run updfstab on usb-storage insertion, and general removal (Probably needs to run on firewire, and other sorts of removal devices). upfstab is a Red Hat specific program that edits /etc/fstab to add entries for removable devices. - added dasd (s390 stuff) tape and dasd agent files from SuSE and Red Hat's hotplug package.
