Interesting, but it seems more complex that a simple stanza in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. Using udev rules for something that will only be used by one application adds unnecessary complication, IMO. If only X will use the information, I'd prefer to put in in the X configuration directory. -- Neil Bothwick The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think.(Horace Walpole)
