Hi Marco,
I am using a scanner which needs to have its lamp switched off when plugged
into USB. I wrote a script for that, which is called by an udev rule. That
works very well when I plug the scanner, the script is called and the lamp is
switched off. Coldplug does not call the script though (scanner is plugged
during boot). Not even /etc/init.d/udev restart helps in this case.
Any hint what I could do to debug this is very welcome.
I am using a lenny system with udev
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -s udev
Package: udev
Status: install ok installed
Priority: important
Section: admin
Installed-Size: 940
Maintainer: Marco d'Itri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Architecture: i386
Version: 0.114-2
My udev rule:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/z60_local.rules
ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="1606", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0010", MODE="0664",
GROUP="scanner", NAME="umax%n", RUN+="/usr/local/bin/umax1220u start",
ENV{lamp_off}="yes"

The script which switches off the lamp has some debug output which helps to
find out if the script is called:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /usr/local/bin/umax1220u
#!/bin/sh
set -vx
# example for a DEVICE: /proc/bus/usb/001/004
echo umax1220u $DEVICE $* >> /tmp/usb.log
export >> /tmp/usb.log
ACTION=$1
#if [ $MINOR != "19" ]; then exit 0; fi
if echo $DEVPATH |grep ep00 > /dev/null ; then
case $ACTION in
start)
echo "UMAX 1220u scanner added"
# DEV=umax1220u:libusb:`echo $DEVICE|cut -d / -f 5`:`echo $DEVICE|
cut -d / -f 6`
DEV=`scanimage -L|cut -f 2 -d \\\`|cut -f1 -d \'`
echo started: $DEV >> /tmp/usb.log
# example for a DEV umax1220u:libusb:001:006
(sleep 1 && /usr/bin/scanimage --lamp-off --device=$DEV --dont-scan)
&
;;
stop)
echo "UMAX 1220u scanner removed"
;;
