Don't know if this is related, but a kernel or two ago, (linux-3.1.3?), several distros stopped including dev links by default (e.g. /dev/sr0 -> cdrom, etc.) I don't know what all this encompasses, but this stuff was supposed to close some security holes and be moved to udev rules IIRC or be left to the admin to create the links as needed...
I still have the links :^) tks, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
