Re: [Utopia] About gnome-device-manager

["Martin Owens" <doctormo gmail com>]

If you figure it out let me know :-) even getting a list of modules
that are being used for a specific device is hard enough, let alone
loading new modules, loading new modules and excluding certain devices
or including certain devices. I don't even think the kernel has that
level of granularity, it's one of the reasons we have problems with
kernel modules 'stealing' devices from other modules. they're
effectively catch all and all udev does is load the modules it thinks
go with certain detected devices.

If you can fix the kernel, device managers would be able to do more
'management' but at the moment there arn't even command line tools to
do what your asking.

Best Regards, Martin Owens
