The question asking the device to symlink /dev/pilot with won't
work with 2.6 kernels !


The heuristics to try to bind the same device to the same device
files where removed . PLugging and unpluggung the same device
could bind once to /dev/ttyUSB0 then to /dev/ttyUSB1 ...

Those heuristics are now manageable via udev but your script will
overwrites the link setupped by it :-/

Well in fact it may works most of the time (if no other
usb-serial device are used) . But setup with an usb pda and an
usb phone are not that weird nowadays.


Though i would really love to see those heuristics settuped by
pilot-link instead of my own hands (maybe listing the available
usb serial devices taken from sysfs , udev is just another user
of sysfs)

udev packages usggest those docs :
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev.html
http://www.reactivated.net/udevrules.php


At least the question could had a "don't manage symlink" with a
warning that it is suggested under linux 2.6.
