Try making your file 11-joystick or even 00-josystick? The udev man page says "All rule files are read in lexical order." Maybe something in the 50- file is matching before it reads your 51- file? I used 11- (arbitrary, don't remember why now, probably because the example I googled did so) and it works fine on the disk drives I manage with it. And this is a lot less off-topic than you may think: one can use serial numbers or device paths for usb-serial adapters in a udev rule, so that a particular device can show up as /dev/gps0 or /dev/tnc14439. It makes things a lot easier when setting up xastir devices. -Jason kg4wsv _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
