Looking at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Techniques_and_Configuration
I'm hit by another udev moving target. udevinfo has moved to udevadm
and that's an easy switch, but now on Ubuntu 9.10 vol_id is no longer

Nice! I see it's rated for 0-45C, what temps are you trying it with?

been changed.

incompatibility.
