offering a solution that a relative newbie can implement.
After Purging udev including rming the entire /etc/udev directory and reinstalling to fix a sound problem I have to create the modem symbolic link, ln -s /dev/ttySHCF0 /dev/modem every time I boot up. I've tried ChatagnierL-Home:/etc/udev/scripts# /etc/init.d/udev restart Recreating device nodes...done. ChatagnierL-Home:/etc/udev/scripts# After rebooting, still no /dev/modem and have to create symlink again ChatagnierL-Home:/etc/udev/scripts# /usr/bin/udevtest /dev/modem version 056 looking at '/dev/modem' sysfs_open_class_device_path failed ChatagnierL-Home:/etc/udev/scripts# Googled for above message and found 7 items concerning older versions of udev with pages of script that I wouldn't dare try.
There were 2 or 3 files in /etc/udev/rules.d dir that were no recreated after reinstalling udev that goes something like: hfcpci.conf and 10 or 50sound.rules. The hfcpci.conf is probably pertinent to the problem. How can I recreate it?
Considered running the script inputdev.sh, read sh man and info but couldn't determine which option to use. Never have run a script before but it seems to use Debian I going to have to do it. Could someone clue me in if this is the correct script to use and the proper switch to use. I am a relative newbie and not a programmer, just a user. I've also read the udev manual and googled on the subject, and its over my head. A quick solution is desirable as my system is fully functional otherwise(until the next upgrade/dist-upgrade anyway). I'm using kernel-image 2.6.8-2-686 an upgrading under testing with udev version .056-2 installed. There is no entry regarding /dev/modem, only a capi entry, in the udev.rules file or in the devfs.rules file.
