Re: Fedora Core 5, Aladdin eToken PRO32 and udev hotplug

Hi Greg,

thx for the answer ; I realize my posting was not very clear: without 
the ACTION="add" it also does not fire on this rule; Google told me 
that others have seen this as well and that it's caused by the fact that 
when a device is removed the SYSFS entries are gone before the rule is 
fired... plz correct me if I am wrong and plz tell me how to write a 
ACTINO="remove" rule that will fire only for this particular USB device...

cheers,

JJK
