Note that /etc/init.d/hotplug does nothing these days...hotplug is just enabled automatically by the kernel. So either you should rc-update del net.wlan0, or you will have to modify /etc/jhotplug/net.agent to your liking. Of course, if it is built-in, then ignore everything I just said! -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
