71 Hi Mick,
72
73 This is what udevadm monitor prints, when I unplug both Ariettas
74 simultanously:
75 solfire:/home/mccramer>udevadm monitor
76 monitor will print the received events for:
77 UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing
78 KERNEL - the kernel uevent

439 As I wrote in my initial mail:
440 I see no difference in both, which may offer a possibilty to act upon
441 when plugging in the one or the other (or both) devices/Ariettas.
442
443 Before I mailed to the group I read the documentation you linked, but
444 may be I missed something which reveals the solution to this
445 problem...
446 But what did I miss?
447
448 Best regards,
