Hmm, but according to udevtest (below), pam is the last thing to run?
And, l 4 of udevtest says it's creating "mode = '0660'", which ain't
right?  If the problem is pam_console, how would I deal to it?

M.

[morgan@morgansmachine ~]$ udevtest /class/tty/ttyUSB1
main: looking at device '/class/tty/ttyUSB1' from subsystem 'tty'
udev_rules_get_name: add symlink 'nokiaca42clone'
udev_rules_get_name: rule applied, 'ttyUSB1' becomes 'ttyUSB1'
create_node: creating device node '/dev/ttyUSB1', major = '188', minor =
'1', mode = '0660', uid = '0', gid = '14'
create_node: creating symlink '/dev/nokiaca42clone' to 'ttyUSB1'
main: run: 'socket:/org/kernel/udev/monitor'
main: run: '/lib/udev/udev_run_devd'
main: run: 'socket:/org/freedesktop/hal/udev_event'
main: run: '/sbin/pam_console_apply /dev/ttyUSB1 /dev/nokiaca42clone'
