Yes, this is already working in my tree: REPLACE, KERNEL="tty[0-9]*", NAME="vc/%n" Dec 2 18:30:57 pim udev[10109]: build_kernel_number: kernel_number='49' Dec 2 18:30:57 pim udev[10109]: strncmp_wildcard: fnmatch p:ttyS* s:tty49 r:1 Dec 2 18:30:57 pim udev[10109]: strncmp_wildcard: fnmatch p:tty[0-9]* s:tty49 r:0 Dec 2 18:30:57 pim udev[10109]: apply_format: substitute kernel number '49' Dec 2 18:30:57 pim udev[10109]: udev_add_device: name='vc/49' Dec 2 18:30:57 pim udev[10109]: create_node: mknod(/udev/vc/49, 020666, 4, 49) It's based on libc's fnmatch(), that supports (*, ?, []). http://developer.novell.com/ndk/doc/libc/index.html?page=/ndk/doc/libc/libc_enu/data/amsgxku.html But I have to port it to klibc. I will do this tomorrow if nobody comes up with a better idea :) Kay ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by OSDN's Audience Survey.
