Subjectdevfsd-v1.3.19 available
  Hi, all. I've just released version 1.3.19 of my devfsd (devfs
daemon) at: http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/linux/

Tarball directly available from:
ftp://ftp.??.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/devfsd/devfsd.tar.gz

AND:
ftp://ftp.atnf.csiro.au/pub/people/rgooch/linux/daemons/devfsd/devfsd.tar.gz

This works with devfs-patch-v130, kernel 2.3.46 and devfs-patch-v99.7
(or later).

The main changes are:

- Set environment to "safe mode" when invoking modprobe and add better
debugging messages for /lib/modutils.so. Based on patch from
Russell Coker

- Call setsid(2)/setpgid(2) to avoid console hangups and place all
devfsd processes in the same process group

- Generate synthetic REGISTER event for directories at startup

- Made public function <mksymlink> which doesn't generate errors on
existing symlinks

- Updated compatibility entry support for fixed Computone serial
driver names

- Updated compatibility entry support for pending Cyclades serial
driver names.

Regards,

Richard....
