Indeed, removing the said part would fix it. Note that NAME="%k" is redundant: suppose you have a disk /dev/sda1, in udev, its kernel device (%k) is "sda1" already, so there's no need to say "hey udev, please create the device at /dev/$NAME instead of /dev/%k, ok?". ;) NAME="something" should be used if You wanted to have a device to be created under somewhere other than /dev/%k. An example of this is in /lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules where video1394 devices are created under /dev/video1394/%k. -- Max _______________________________________________ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org http://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - http://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - http://slackbuilds.org/faq/
