Since the last releases I use most drivers as modules. I use kerneld to load
them when they are needed. That worked fine until I combined the use of a
PS/2 mouse and the watchdog timer. Then the mouse driver fails to autoload.
Probably the reason for this is that they both have major number 10.
My question is how to tell kerneld when to load psaux.o. I didn't test the
watchdog because the hardware isn't ready yet...
In my /ect/conf.modules (who will patch that to modules.conf?) I put the
following line:
alias char-major-10 psaux
It works fine when I compile without watchdog, or manually insert psuax.o.
Now I need to have a way to do the following:
char device major 10, minor 1 --> psaux : load mouse.o and psaux.o
char device major 10, minor 130 --> watchdog (it is a module ?? I'm not sure)
Maybe someone can help me,
Thanks in advance,
Bas Mevissen.
