The only line in 10-local is the following: -------/etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules----------- KERNEL=="js*", NAME="input/%k", MODE="664", SYMLINK+="%k" --------end file---------------------------------- which is to make joysticks work under wine. The thing is, I compared the rules (50-udev.rules) between three versions of udev, and to my eyes, the rules for sd* and sg* are virtually identical for these versions: 1) udev-068-r1, which works on my desktop. 2) udev-087-r1, the one that was giving me woes 3) udev-094, one that is running on my ~x86 laptop and also works So I am not quite sure whether it is a rules problem or a problem on how udev handles the events. Is there a way to check that? W -- "`Right,' said Ford, `I'm going to have a look.' He glanced round at the others. `Is no one going to say, "No you can't possibly, let me go instead"?'
