No, we don't even have proper modaliases for the pnp bus (/sys/bus/pnp) and the alias string for pnp in the modules have a broken and unfixable format. PNP autoloading is all handled by the acpi modaliases these days. This is the first time in years I hear anybody asking for hotplug setups of plain old pnp devices. :) Thanks, Kay -- 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/
