Here comes a new udev version. Thanks to all who have contributed to this release. The tarball can be found here: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/ The development repository can be found here: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=sum... The ChangeLog can be found here: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=blob;... udev 148 ======== Bugfixes. The option "ignore_device" does no longer exist. There is no way to ignore an event, as libudev events can not be suppressed by rules. It only prevented RUN keys from being executed, which results in an inconsistent behavior in current setups. BUS=, SYSFS{}=, ID= are long deprecated and should be SUBSYSTEM(S)=, ATTR(S){}=, KERNEL(S)=. It will cause a warning once for every rule file from now on. The support for the deprecated IDE devices has been removed from the default set of rules. Distros who still care about non-libata drivers need to add the rules to the compat rules file. The ID_CLASS property on input devices has been replaced by the more accurate set of flags ID_INPUT_{KEYBOARD,KEY,MOUSE,TOUCHPAD,TABLET,JOYSTICK}. These are determined by the new "input_id" prober now. Some devices, such as touchpads, can have several classes. So if you previously had custom udev rules which e. g. checked for ENV{ID_CLASS}=="kbd", you need to replace this with ENV{ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD}=="?*". -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-hotplug" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
