Well, serial lines are not "Plug&Play" like PCI bus. So, AsFarAsIKnow, the Linux kernel does not generate any UDEV event for serial lines. (Like it does for most other devices).
I guess, most people would use WinModems that necessitate to compile their own modules, which in my experience, sometimes cares to create /dev/ppp (by adding a UDEV rule I suppose). That said, I finaly get my hand on some cheap external 56k modem which avoid me the painfull process of module compilation... and I suspect it works less and less because these modules would tend to not have any developers to update them. _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
