Message-Id: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-hotplug@vger.kernel.org Hi, I use a hotplug script to download the firmware to my hp printer. This is needed for HP Laserjet 1000,1005 and 1020. The procedure is just cat firmware > /dev/usb/lp* The problem is that /dev/usb/lp* has to exist for the script to work. In earlier udev versions I just added "sleep 20" to the script to be sure that the device node exists. With the last version of udev this seems to be no longer possiblee because udev waits for the hotplug script to exit before creating the device node :( How can I make sure that the hotplug script is run after usblp is loaded and after the device is created? Is there some hotplug-way to find out which device-node I am supposed to load the firmware into?
