You don't need to change the name of the device, just set up a rule to |
| 12 |
change the device named by serial, leaving the one you want available |
| 13 |
for lirc_serial. I do something like this to stop eth1 being grabbed by |
| 14 |
net1394 if my wireless module doesn't load when it should, such as after |
| 15 |
a kernel re-compile (it is an external module). |
