> If someone wants to support Poul in his raid against the _idea_ of the > framework _without_ providing technical arguments against the _idea_, One of my main objections to the framework is that it precludes user-level sensors without some hokey interface for the userland sensor to write into the kernel its current values. It is certainyl a technical weakness in the current setup. It works for some i2c parts and a few others, but it falls down in the general case. That's what Poul has been trying to tell you and you've been dismissing this, and other arguments as irrelevant and tuen turning around and saying Poul isn't making a technical argument. Give me a break. Warner
