Missed that. Are you sure the -D is necessary on your system? > > What version of Ubuntu are you running?

I have also installed meta-packages for a music studio from UbuntuStudio installed. The udev package have the version 108-0ubuntu4. fxload is version 0.0.20020411-1. uname reports: Linux kalle 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux Can you try changing your udev file back to the version without the -D and > rebooting?

Before I started to hack the udev-rules I installed the midisport-package and failed to load the firmware. Then I rebooted my machine and still failed. I modified the script above to print $DEVICE and $DEVNAME into a log file and $DEVICE is not set or contains no information. It seems that one difference is that my fix uses $DEVNAME instead of $DEVICE. Anybody knows why/when this is changed? Are there a setting for this that can differ?
