udev has many different schemes for naming devices. Some depend on the
distribution. Research the files /etc/udev.conf (there might be a .d
directory included too). You also wanna research hotplug as it
interfaces with udev since it's the one that actually loads the
drivers. I belive your problem is configuration related and more to do
with udev naming. Let us know what you come out with.
