Subject: udevtest: man page unclear
Date: Sun, 19 Mar 2006 20:21:23 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <dvkeef$4ai$4@sea.gmane.org> (raw)
in udev 079 the man page reads:
NAME
udevtest - simulate a udev run and print the action to the console
SYNOPSIS
udevtest device-path subsystem
DESCRIPTION
udevtest simulates a udev run for the given device and prints out the
name of the node udev would have created, or the name of the network
interface, that would have been renamend.
well, to my knowledge I can use udev as hotplug, i.e. to run something
if hardware is added. the manpage does not tell me if it can help in that
scenario.
also what is device path? what is subsystem? an example would be nice.
for example: how to run a test for a usb token?
udevtest /class/usb_device/usbdev3.3 usb
should be fine I think? is that correct?
Andreas
