Package: udev Version: 0.076-3 Severity: wishlist
As you surely know, without persistent naming some tasks are hard to achieve, and this happens a lot with USB devices (e.g. with one Palm and one USB-serial cable, /dev/ttyUSB0 isn't always what you want; moreover pilot software expects to talk to /dev/pilot). I know that I can write my own udev rules, but this isn't really user-friendly. There should probably exist some sane defaults to let people recognize their devices in /dev. -- Package-specific info: -- /etc/udev/rules.d/: /etc/udev/rules.d/: total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2005-04-14 09:23 020_permissions.rules -> ../permissions.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2005-10-12 09:49 025_libgphoto2.rules -> ../libgphoto2.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2005-11-23 17:32 050_hal-plugdev.rules -> ../hal.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2004-12-05 20:46 cd-aliases.rules -> ../cd-aliases.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2004-04-01 20:15 udev.rules -> ../udev.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2005-08-31 08:34 z20_persistent.rules -> ../persistent.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2005-07-07 23:21 z50_run.rules -> ../run.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2005-10-09 00:09 z55_hotplug.rules -> ../hotplug.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2005-08-31 08:42 z60_alsa-utils.rules -> ../alsa-utils.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2005-09-20 09:12 z60_hdparm.rules -> ../hdparm.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2005-07-07 23:21 z70_hotplugd.rules -> ../hotplugd.rules -- /sys/: /sys/block/hda/dev /sys/block/hda/hda1/dev /sys/block/hda/hda5/dev /sys/block/hda/hda6/dev /sys/block/hda/hda7/dev /sys/block/hdb/dev /sys/block/hdd/dev /sys/block/ram0/dev /sys/block/ram10/dev /sys/block/ram11/dev /sys/block/ram12/dev /sys/block/ram13/dev /sys/block/ram14/dev /sys/block/ram15/dev /sys/block/ram1/dev /sys/block/ram2/dev /sys/block/ram3/dev /sys/block/ram4/dev /sys/block/ram5/dev /sys/block/ram6/dev /sys/block/ram7/dev /sys/block/ram8/dev /sys/block/ram9/dev /sys/block/sda/dev /sys/block/sda/sda2/dev /sys/block/sda/sda3/dev /sys/block/sdb/dev /sys/block/sdc/dev /sys/block/sdd/dev /sys/block/sde/dev /sys/block/sde/sde1/dev /sys/class/drm/card0/dev /sys/class/input/event0/dev /sys/class/input/event1/dev /sys/class/input/event2/dev /sys/class/input/event3/dev /sys/class/input/event4/dev /sys/class/input/js0/dev /sys/class/input/js1/dev /sys/class/input/mice/dev /sys/class/input/mouse0/dev /sys/class/misc/agpgart/dev /sys/class/misc/device-mapper/dev /sys/class/misc/hpet/dev /sys/class/misc/mcelog/dev /sys/class/misc/psaux/dev /sys/class/misc/rtc/dev /sys/class/misc/vmmon/dev /sys/class/sound/adsp/dev /sys/class/sound/audio/dev /sys/class/sound/controlC0/dev /sys/class/sound/dsp/dev /sys/class/sound/mixer/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0p/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D1c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D2p/dev /sys/class/sound/timer/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev1.1/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev1.3/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev1.4/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev2.1/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev2.2/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev3.1/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev3.3/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev3.6/dev /sys/class/usb_device/usbdev3.7/dev -- Kernel configuration: isapnp_init not present. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-2-amd64-k8 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages udev depends on: ii initscripts 2.86.ds1-6 Standard scripts needed for bootin ii libc6 2.3.5-8.1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libselinux1 1.26-1 SELinux shared libraries ii libsepol1 1.8-1 Security Enhanced Linux policy lib ii lsb-base 3.0-11 Linux Standard Base 3.0 init scrip ii makedev 3.3.8.2-0 Creates device files in /dev ii sed 4.1.4-4 The GNU sed stream editor udev recommends no packages. -- debconf information: udev/devfs-warning: udev/reboot-warning: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
