I don't want to offend anyone but let's be honest: people start many initiatives, and they are not always right, no matter how many effort is put. I don't want to discourage it but sometimes I dislike the importunity accompanying it. Users are free to do whatever they want as long as it doesn't harm the rest of users. And I'm afraid that too much enthusiasm over mdev will actually cause a number of users to end up being disappointed that one or another magic requiring udev no longer works. > > > > >> Now I understand why some devs are working hard to make Mdev > >> working with OpenRC. > > > > > different, you could as well disable USE=udev and use regular udev. > > > equivalent to KDE/GNOME/whatever without anything?

Sorry for the confusion caused to you and the others. You need to read it bottom-to-top. I reversed the line order for Sylvain who seems to prefer reading that way. -- Best regards, Michał Górny
