hi, sorry about this delayed response - but I didn't get the udevinfo-request from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ok, here ist is: udevinfo -a -p /sys/class/net/ipw2100/ (I renamed the eth-device from eth1 to ipw2100) udevinfo starts with the device the node belongs to and then walks up the device chain, to print for every device found, all possibly useful attributes in the udev key format. Only attributes within one device section may be used together in one rule, to match the device for which the node will be created. looking at class device '/sys/class/net/ipw2100': SUBSYSTEM="net" SYSFS{addr_len}="6" SYSFS{address}="00:0c:f1:3b:85:54" SYSFS{broadcast}="ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff" SYSFS{carrier}="1" SYSFS{features}="0x0" SYSFS{flags}="0x1003" SYSFS{ifindex}="3" SYSFS{iflink}="3" SYSFS{mtu}="1500" SYSFS{tx_queue_len}="1000" SYSFS{type}="1" follow the class device's "device" looking at the device chain at '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:02:02.0': BUS="pci" ID="0000:02:02.0" DRIVER="ipw2100" SYSFS{capability}="0x00000000" SYSFS{cfg}="0x00000042" SYSFS{class}="0x028000" SYSFS{detach_state}="0" SYSFS{device}="0x1043" SYSFS{fatal_error}="0" SYSFS{irq}="11" SYSFS{local_cpus}="1" SYSFS{rf_kill}="0" SYSFS{scan_age}="15000" SYSFS{status}="0x00000c2d" SYSFS{subsystem_device}="0x2551" SYSFS{subsystem_vendor}="0x8086" SYSFS{vendor}="0x8086" looking at the device chain at '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0': BUS="pci" ID="0000:00:1e.0" DRIVER="unknown" SYSFS{class}="0x060400" SYSFS{detach_state}="0" SYSFS{device}="0x2448" SYSFS{irq}="0" SYSFS{local_cpus}="1" SYSFS{subsystem_device}="0x0000" SYSFS{subsystem_vendor}="0x0000" SYSFS{vendor}="0x8086" looking at the device chain at '/sys/devices/pci0000:00': BUS="" ID="pci0000:00" DRIVER="unknown" SYSFS{detach_state}="0" tschuess, thomas -- _____________________________________________ Thomas Breitner [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.tombreit.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
