Description

Thanks - I've amended the CVS version with a procedure for finding out the correct device node. The HAL device mounting in FC5 doesn't seem to log to /var/log/dmesg, so I've specified "ls /proc/mounts". (In reply to comment #1) > The HAL device mounting in FC5 doesn't seem to log to > /var/log/dmesg Note that /var/log/dmesg should really be called /var/log/boot-dmesg - it is only written once per session, on bootup. Everything that happens after bootup only appears in the output of the dmesg command, but not in /var/log/dmesg. OK, I've now revised the instructions to use the dmesg command. Thanks again. |
