Change the removable device-drivers to detect change. Fx, with cdrom, change the cdrom-part to detect when the disc tray ejects and when it goes back in, both for manual (user push eject) and automatic (program sends eject-request). This way the kernel just have to send a signal when this happens on a device (to processes who have requested to get to know). This has several advantages: * Supermount don't need to be kernel-related at all, and so doesn't need to be updated for each new kernel revision (cleaner kernel) * Possible to get autorun on linux * Can get rid of "insert cd and press ok"-like things (replace with "insert cd or press cancel") * Imagination is the only limit :) So, what do you say ? (I'm a newbie to this, so don't flame me to hard :) Gerry - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
