From 5bc597fecaf6a2535aa4b66a21e609e80cfefcb1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "klauser@access.unizh.ch" Date: Tue, 7 Dec 2004 23:01:44 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] Various typos and other litte errors in udev.8.in Thanks-To: Tobias Klauser While crawling through the udev manpage I noticed some typos and other grammatical errors. English is not my native language, so I'm not sure if I fixed everything right. I would be glad if any English-speaking person could check this patch before applying. --- udev.8.in | 36 ++++++++++++++++++------------------ 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/udev.8.in b/udev.8.in index 7bdf56097..07bd7bce3 100644 --- a/udev.8.in +++ b/udev.8.in @@ -58,7 +58,7 @@ queries its database for the name of the device file to be deleted.
