of course. >We cannot go ripping out stuff which applications and users >are currently using without quite a lot of preparation. Agreed. Although the implementation of the /proc lid status file is fundamentally flawed in that even its name in /proc is able to change and thus it is a totally bogus user-space API, it was not thoughtful to delete it. I'm open to suggestions on how to approach this transition. I can make ACPI_PROC a static build option -- what else can I do to ease the transition in this, our stable release? thanks, -Len - 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/
