You're not getting banged on, as Michael said udev is a polarizing piece of software. Life is full of silly and not-so-silly conventions and /dev/dvd is one of them. It has no good reason to be there, and equally no good reason to not be there, but you already fixed your stuff to make it do what you want. "It's not a bug" should be read more as "upstream is probably going to ignore you" if you log a bug. In my opinion of course. Do stick around, you are up there in the list of people who make many useful posts. -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
