No. I should probably explain that what Samuel is talking about only applies to the installer. In my opinion, we can not, and *should* not, include generic devices in udev rules installed on the final system by default. Users should be able to opt-in to the generic rules by copying a generic rules file to /etc/udev/rules.d/, but grabbing generic USB adapters by default is a no go. People actually do trip over this and do send bug reports about it. > If you only allow this one, how do you filter the others out? I think Samuel was manually updating the rules. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
