Do you use udev? I suppose this is going to be a FAQ at some point. I don't, so testing is going to be difficult for me. If not, I'll need some error messages to get any further with this. If so, I suppose it's because udev hasn't set up the device yet, although it's init script has run. Thanks, -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
