Hi Hetz,

Sorry to point you to a tutorial, but this one is quite detailed:
http://www.reactivated.net/udevrules.php

>>From what I can gather (since I don't use udev), the following should
work for kqemu...

# udevinfo -q path -n /dev/kqemu # which should return something like:
/class/kernel/module/xxx

# udevinfo -a -p /class/kernel/module/xxx

>>From that output, you should be able to create a line similar to:

BUS="kernel", SYSFS{serial}="L72010011070626380", NAME="%k"

This may be totally off base, so let me know how it goes :)

Cheers,

Damien
