Subject: Starting with udev

Hi all,

i'm really new with udev and i was following the writing udev rules to
understand how it works.

What i wanted to do, is to mount and execute a script once a usb device is
plugged.
To test this, i found the line:

KERNEL="sd*", ACTION="add", RUN+="/usr/bin/notify-send test test"

I wrote this in a file called 90-test.rules under /etc/udev/rules.d and
restarted udev plugged the usb device and nothing happened.

I'm using the version 151, it's updated with the writing udev rules link or
there's something i'm getting wrong?

Regards
Sal
