How > do I convert the bits into a flag number? Thanks for your help. The value of the nth bit should be 2^n if the bit is set, and 0 otherwise. Simply add all of the bits. For example, if you wanted to set HOOKRESUME (bit 13) and INITAFTERSUSPEND (bit 14), you'd have 2^13 + 2^14 = 0x6000. You could then make an entry in your kernel configuration file similar to this: device psm0 at atkbdc? irq 12 flags 0x6000 </PLAGARISM> -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Daniel Frazier <dfrazier@magpage.com> Tel: 302-239-5900 Ext. 231 Systems Administrator Fax: 302-239-3909 MAGPAGE, We Power the Internet WWW: http://www.magpage.com/ "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania, 1759.
