[Gumstix-users] firmware loading with udev

[Simon de B. <si...@v2...>]

Hi craig,

You might want to apply this simple patch which makes it possible to use
udev instead of hotplug for firmware loading. It patches package/udev
adjusting udev.mk to include firmware_helper from the udev package and
adds a udev rule for to invoke this helper on a firmware request.

(The standard firmware directory is /lib/firmware)

I used it successfully with a symbol spectrum24 wlan cf card.

Cheers!
Simon
