No, it is not useless. You may not be happy with the available information - the correct action for you to take is to tag the bug moreinfo, not berate the submitter for its uselessness. Perhaps someone else who *does* have physical access to their server can reproduce and provide the necessary debugging information. Or in any case, it is *still* useful to have the bug on record for folks who have the same problem. > > How do I instruct udev that the device is already present and the device > > node should be created?

The process for instructing udev that the device is already present and the device node should be created is dependent on why the device was not created in the first place? That seems a bit far-fetched. Are you sure? How do I instruct udev that the device is already present and the device node should be created, like with MAKEDEV? > > > > /etc/init.d/udev restart does not correct the situation. > > > It is not supposed to. > > What is supposed to? > Restart udevd. Obviously, I was not asking what /etc/init.d/udev was supposed to do. I was asking what will instruct udev to create the device node. How do I instruct udev that the device is already present and the device node should be created, like with MAKEDEV? -- _ivan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
