$ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video0
/class/video4linux/video0
$ udevinfo -a -p /class/video4linux/video0
Udevinfo starts with the device specified by the devpath and then
walks up the chain of parent devices. It prints for every device
found, all possible attributes in the udev rules key format.
A rule to match, can be composed by the attributes of the device
and the attributes from one single parent device.
looking at device '/class/video4linux/video0':
KERNEL==video0
SUBSYSTEM==video4linux
SYSFS{name}==LML33_0_
SYSFS{dev}==81:0
$ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video1
no record for 'video1' in database
$ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video2
no record for 'video2' in database
$ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video3
no record for 'video3' in database
$ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video4
no record for 'video4' in database
The problem is sometimes when I boot the LML33 is /dev/video0 and
sometimes /dev/video4
I tried a udev rule
SUBSYSTEM==video4linux, SYSFS{name}==LML33_0_,SYMLINK=lml33
but it doesn't work
What do I need to do to get consistant device naming?
I am using CentOS 5.3, kernel 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5.centos.plus, and
udev-095-14.20.el5_3 package

[CentOS] help with udev rules needed
I am migrating from Fedora 8 to CentOS 5.2
I have usb dvd
On F8 I have /etc/udev/rules/00-my-custom.rules
BUS==scsi, SYSFS{vendor}==TSSTcorp, SYSFS{model}==CDDVDW SH-S203N
,SYMLINK=dvd,OWNER=rray
When I plug in dvd I get

ll /dev/sr1
brw-r- 1 rray disk 11, 1 2009-01-21 12:29 /dev/sr1
Everything is ok

BUS==scsi, SYSFS{vendor}==TSSTcorp, SYSFS{model}==CDDVDW SH-S203N
,SYMLINK=dvd,OWNER=rray
When I plug in dvd I get
# ll /dev/scd0
brw-rw 1 root disk 11, 0 Jan 21 12:30 /dev/scd0
I have also tried MODE=0666 and it also has no affect
I have checked udevinfo -a -p $(udevinfo -q path -n /dev/scd0/1) on both
machines and they are the same
Any suggestions

the above rule has nothing to do with sdcX it's just create dvd symlink,
the device itself created by system udev rules.
On C5.2 the device has root:disk ownership and 660 perms
The OWNER=rray part of the udev rule appears to be ignored
How can I change the owner to rray or perms to 0666

_which_ device? scd1 or dvd!!!?
your rule is about dvd it has nothing to with scd1!
I believe I am very confused
Please ignore everything above
If I wanted to write a udev rules such that when I plugged in my usb dvd
drive, the owner of the device file is rray what might that rule look
like given udevinfo tells me these characteristics describe my dvd drive
