[linux-dvb] Re: Anyone got a Nova-T USB working?



Title: [linux-dvb] Re: Anyone got a Nova-T USB working?

Holger, I upgraded from Mandrake 9.1 to 9.2 then installed udev as a dependency for the 2.6 kernel, but I noticed the devfs daemon still runs on bootup, it takes while then says [OK] and continues.

 

Am I safe to disable the devfs service?  If so what should I check prior to disabling devfs daemon?

If you don't use devfs (udev for 2.6 kernels) you need to run the
makedev.napi script to create the device nodes. it's part of the release
tarball or located in CVS, module DVB: DVB/driver/makedev.napi.
