Looks like y'all are right. About June 15th or so, Gentoo (maybe others, too) moved the rules from /etc/udev/rules.d to /lib/udev. I haven't had a chance to try to fix it, but it looks like the installer script that puts the 99-libftdi rules file either needs to be version aware, or write a note into the file that it may need to be relocated. I had no idea that the udev stuff had moved (I use defaults), and I stay pretty well on top of my system. Dunno how I missed that.
Thanks for y'alls help. --jc On Fri, Aug 7, 2009 at 9:53 PM, Michael Plante <[email protected]>wrote: > Good point.
