Public bug reported: Binary package hint: udev
I have two USB DVB-T TV tuners. Both have IR receivers. udev gives them the same path id: malc...@mythtv:~$ /lib/udev/path_id /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.1/usb1/1-4/input/input8 ID_PATH=pci-0000:00:04.1 malc...@mythtv:~$ /lib/udev/path_id /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.1/usb1/1-1/input/input7 ID_PATH=pci-0000:00:04.1 I've applied the patch in bug 546128 to get by-path symlinks for input devices, but there is only a symlink for one of them: ~$ ls -l /dev/input/by-path/ total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2010-07-15 17:48 pci-0000:00:04.0-usb-0:5:1.0-event-kbd -> ../event3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2010-07-15 17:48 pci-0000:00:04.0-usb-0:5:1.1-event-mouse -> ../event4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2010-07-15 17:48 pci-0000:00:04.0-usb-0:5:1.1-mouse -> ../mouse1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2010-07-15 17:48 pci-0000:00:04.1-event-ir -> ../event8 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2010-07-15 17:48 pci-0000:00:04.1-usb-0:2:1.0-event -> ../event5 I expect path_id to return a unique identifier.
