I am not sure how useful this is, but I would try to things: 1) Use "==" instead of "=" for the KERNEL test. "=" for tests has been depreciated for a while. (It was still supported long after that, but maybe that has changed now.) 2) Comment out the NAME="%k" assignment. The normal %k device node will be created by one of the standard udev rules, so there is no need to do it again. (Maybe that confuses udev for some reason.) -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
