Hm, are you sure you applied them and are using that kernel? :) /sys/class should look something like this: $ tree /sys/class/ /sys/class/ |-- cpu | `-- cpu0 | |-- device -> ../../../devices/sys/cpu0 | `-- foo |-- input `-- tty |-- console0 | `-- dev |-- ptmx0 | `-- dev |-- pts0 | `-- dev |-- pts1 | `-- dev |-- pts2 | `-- dev |-- pts3 | `-- dev |-- pts4 | `-- dev |-- pts5 | `-- dev |-- pts6 | `-- dev |-- pts7 | `-- dev |-- pty0 | `-- dev |-- pty1 | `-- dev ... and so on... thanks, greg k-h
