thanks,

I did.
I said I would remove that string, because I don't want all that email,
either. It's a little past the middle of the post appended here.

Greg,
First, let me thank you for your prompt replies!

If you object, I will be happy to move them into the routine body
without the defines. I agree that It does look inconsistent to have
these strings defined and other strings embedded in the routine body.

Actually, no. The strings do not contain redundant info. The pr_info
routine is just a macro for printk(KERN_INFO ...)

Hmmm! Good point! I was actually copying that other message. I will
remove the string that advises posting a report. I sure don't want 'em,
and I can see that you don't, either.

The function call used to be contained in an if statement.
I changed the logic, but forgot to remove the extra parens.
It's tough getting old.

Oops Legace ... too much language confusion in my life ... portugues ...
