Hi,

I'm writing a driver for a USB modem. The driver needs to read a file with

preferences when the user connects. I haven't been able to find any

documentation on how to do this in kernel mode but from reading a couple of

LINUX ng's I've come to understand that there might be a problem doing this.

Does anyone know what would be the right way to do this? (a usermode process

sending ioctls with the preferences will not work in this case)

This have been discussed a lot of times. You can check in the archives for: - Notify a kext when a user logsin or logsout - Post Login StartupItems - Preferences for a kext - Storing and retrieving kext settings In darwin-dev list francis _______________________________________________ darwin-kernel mailing list | darwin-kernel@lists.apple.com Help/Unsubscribe/Archives: http://www.lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/darwin-kernel Do not post admin requests to the list.
