Unless someone objects, I'll follow the suggestion given on this link
http://linhes.org/issues/652#note-3 and modify lcdproc package to
install a udev rules in /lib/udev/rules.d/79-imon-lcd.rules.
I'll tweak the proposed rules to be a little bit more restrictive.
I'll also patch server/drivers/imon.c to use the file created by the
udev rule by default.
Thoughts ?
