Revisiting pup_event: first changes

February 16, 2018 — BarryK

I posted about pup_event earlier:

http://bkhome.org/news/201802/revisiting-pupevent.html

Where I identified possible old scripts that are no longer required. Indeed. have deleted these from /sbin:

pup_event_backend_firmware
pup_event_backend_modprobe
pup_event_backend_modprobe_protect

Then, in /etc/udev/rules.d, I have deleted '60-dialup-modem.rules', and edited '50-udev-puppy-basic.rules' reducing it down to just this:

# sound
# note, /lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules is from udev 167, has rules for
# ownership:group and permissions when device nodes are created.

# from kirk, fatdog64...
KERNEL=="audio0", SYMLINK+="audio"
KERNEL=="dsp0", SYMLINK+="dsp"
KERNEL=="mixer0", SYMLINK+="mixer"

# sound devices (oss) -- got this from gentoo rules --needed?
SUBSYSTEM=="snd", GROUP="audio"

i applied these changes, rebooted. The system came up exactly as before, same number of modules loaded (59).
