That seemed like a good idea. So I modified my rules file as follows: # Setup Prolific Technology Inc. USB-Serial Controller dongles for statice names KERNEL=="ttyUSB0", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb-serial", ATTRS{busnum}=="6", ATTRS{devnum}=="3", DRIVERS=="pl2303", SYMLINK+="tty_dgl0" KERNEL=="ttyUSB1", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb-serial", ATTRS{busnum}=="7", ATTRS{devnum}=="5", DRIVERS=="pl2303", SYMLINK+="tty_dgl1" and no symlinks were created although /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1 exist and they came up in the order that I want (probably will change on the next restart). - Nate >> -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.
