Subject: UDEV and new hardware?
Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2005 21:36:51 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4356BC73.9000506@ukonline.co.uk> (raw)

Hi I installed a modem driver for the Intel Corporation 536EP Data Fax 
Modem. But in order to use it I need to create a link from it (it is 
called 536ep0 in /dev) to /dev/modem. I need to do this specifically so 
that KPPP can see it.

The only thing is that everything in /dev/ gets deleted and rebuilt each 
time I reboot.

I have been led to believe (rightly or wrongly) that it is udev that is 
responsible for this. So the question is how can I make a symlink from 
/dev/536ep0 to /dev/modem that will remain in place and will persist 
even after a reboot?

GJ
