Thanks for the pointers. So I proceeded to actually compile the kernel (its much leaner, managed to shave off some cruft, including the annoying messages about hw_random missing). Now inotify should be enabled, because I compiled it in. But I don't see a /dev/inotify. The kernel boots great, it's 2.6.15 rc 6 I do have /proc/sys/fs/inotify appearing, but it's a directory. Can I just simlink this ? - Henk Postma <div>On 12/23/05, Dennis Kaarsemaker <<a href="mailto:dennis@kaarsemaker.net">dennis@kaarsemaker.net</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> On vr, 2005-12-23 at 11:24 -0500, 'Forum Post wrote: > don't trust the old config.
