[yet another big snip] Hihi, life is unfair to you. ;-) I am one of those nasty gentoo users and still use devfs, but I want to switch asap, as I found a thread in gentoo forums about it and furthermore tend to do experiments with my installation. So not all gentoo users are bad users. ;-) I really appreciate your work and hope you will find more time in developing udev instead of wasting time (though it was quite interesting for me to read your text) with arguing for it. So I hope when I do the transition it goes smoothly, but even if not, I won't bash onto your head. ;-) Cheers, Prakash
