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,
