For example, the index -2 can mean "use the first free slot, but move to the next one when some other driver is registering with -1 or explicitly to that slot". Of course I have no idea whether this is possible and acceptable, but maybe the alsa guys can tell. > But until that lands in a module-init-tools update, we're kind of stuck. Well, they won't take 10 or any other value I guess... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
