Hello!
I have here a box running Slackware 11.0. He/it has the 2.6.18 kernel
installed as created by the people at Slackware itself.
Now every time I insert a USB fob made by Maxim/Dallas Semiconductor
for their One-Wire technology parts, the OS immediately wants to
install the modules it believes people actually use for this device.
According to the maintainer at the time of the kernel release he
wasn't even aware that an example of software did exist, its available
at
http://owfs.sf.net . Now that's what I use. Problem is that these
modules are not supposed to be loaded. (Two of the people behind the
software development cycle did indeed communicate with the maintainer,
needless to say these discussions went no place special.)
Does anyone have any suggestions for what rules to setup to prevent
this from happening?
