Subject: Kernel 2.6 Hotplugging

Hello,

I am using Kernel 2.6.4 and the newest hotplug software from
ftp.kernel.org. When I hotplug a usb mass storage device, I get a
message like "disk at
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb1/1-2/1-2:1.0/host1/1:0:0:0" on
tty1.

Where does this message come from and how can I prevent it from
appearing? Of course I do not want such a message because it corrupts
the text for example in the vi editor.

Regards
Christoph

It's a bug in the current hotplug scripts. Either back down to the
previous version (as the latest was only a development release), or wait
till I release a new version later this week.

Sorry about this.

I found the new release 2004-03-29 on ftp.kernel.org and tested it. I
still get the message I mentioned above.
