As I recall, LANANA is in charge of the major numbers, but for the USB major, the USB developers have been assigning the USB minors. This patch just made the file different from what is currently present in the kernel. Should I just submit a patch to LANANA to update the USB minors for their copy so this doesn't happen again? I'll also fix this up in mainline in the next round of USB patches... thanks, greg k-h - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
