I try to understand how udev works. I have a dvd reader on /dev/hdc, and a CD writer on /dev/hdd, both on bus ide1. I modified /etc/udev/rules.d/25-lfs.rules for the DVD to work as a CD reader (for ripperX, or xmms), like this (the original global setting messed up because there are two cdrom medias on ide1, I guess) :
# Create the /dev/cdrom symlink. KERNEL="hdc", SYMLINK="cdrom", GROUP="cdrom" The problem is I can't get a "cdrom" symlink with the right group setting : I get root.root, but I'd like root.cdrom. As a normal user, ripperX hangs on a message saying there are no more ptys (?). As root, it works correctly, so it is definitly a permission issue. My normal user belongs to users, audio, video, elog, cdrom, and there's an existing cdrom group, of course. What is going on here ? I thought I had it on when I managed to modify the agpcard group to video, and wad able to get DRI back online. But this seems different. Any help would be greatly appreciated. \bye -- Nicolas FRANCOIS http://nicolas.francois.free.fr We are the Micro$oft. Resistance is futile.
