usb.agent verbose output during boot

bmgz · 03-17-2006, 02:16 AM

I have a strange annoyance that I want to get rid of.
When I boot my server (Slackware 9.1) I get about 20+
pages of hotplug hardware nonsense output to my screen.

NB. I am not getting errors! everything works fine.
I have traced the annoyance down to the /etc/hotplug/usb.agent
being output to the screen.

I have tried to redirect the output from the sourced usb.agent
to /dev/null but then hotplug gives me errors..

Is their any way to stop this output? it seems pretty unecessary..

I think this problem is from usb.usermap - try to remove empty line from the end of this file.
