I have a daemon that should be launched by launchd only after the network drivers (e.g. com.apple.iokit.AppleYukon on a MacBook Pro) have been loaded. As far as I know this can't be done through the launchd plist. Kevin _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

When my daemon starts I check to see if the kext is running. If it's not running I use IONotificationPortGetRunLoopSource to get notified when it *does* start, and I do the KEXT related initialization then. Look at the IOKitLib documentation for this function and IOMasterPort/IOServiceMatching/IOServiceGetMatchingService etc. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
