One thing I forgot is that the LED will be on only if the switch is in the on position _AND_ the interface is UP.
Yes I figured that out. (eventually)

Those patches are already applied to your code.
Thanks for the clarification, and assistance. -- http://www.coe.neu.edu/~efoss/ http://evanfoss.googlepages.com/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
