I cannot reproduce this. On current Utopic (Ubuntu 14.10): $ ls -l /dev/success ls: cannot access /dev/success: No such file or directory $ echo 'KERNEL=="zero", SYMLINK+="success"' | sudo tee /lib/udev/rules.d/graphics-xorg.conf.rules $ sudo udevadm trigger --verbose --sysname-match=zero/sys/devices/virtual/mem/zero $ ls -l /dev/success lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Aug 4 16:37 /dev/success -> zero
Are you sure that it's due to the nameing, and not perhaps a bad rule in your .rules file which breaks the rule? Attaching the new rule and udevadm test output would be helpful here. ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319047 Title: udev rule file naming requirements changed breaking compatibility to Ubuntu 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1319047/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
