Hi, I have a question about my ipod. I have been using my ipod under
udev with the following rule:

BUS="scsi", SYSFS{vendor}="Apple*", SYSFS{model}="iPod*",
KERNEL="sd?2", SYMLINK+="ipod"

This rule works great but my normal user can't eject the device.

I tried adding the following to the rule:

GROUP="plugdev"

Where plugdev is a group that has users I would like to be able to use
the ipod.

For some reason, the ipod device (/dev/sda2) has a group of "disk" and
not "plugdev" like I wanted.

I was guessing that this was because of the rule in
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules that looks something like

# disk devices
KERNEL="sd*",          NAME="%k", GROUP="disk"

My ipod rule is under /etc/udev/rules.d/10-ipod.rules 
Does the later '50' rule over ride the group setting?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

jason
