  http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=blob;...


udev 121
========
Many bugfixes.

The cdrom_id program is replaced by an advanced version, which can
detect most common device types, and also properties of the inserted
media. This is part of moving some basic functionality from HAL into
udev (and the kernel).

udev 120
========
Bugfixes.

The last WAIT_FOR_SYSFS rule is removed from the default rules.

The symlinks to udevadm for the debugging tools: udevmonitor and
udevtest are no longer created.

The symlinks to the udevadm man page for the old tool names are
no longer created.

Abstract namespace sockets paths in RUN+="socket:@<path>" rules,
should be prefixed with '@' to indicate that the path is not a
real file.

udev 119
========
Bugfixes.
