1 I've been having trouble getting udev to create stuff with the right
2 permissions. The latest is with my phone which has a USB Mass Storrage
3 Interface. I've added this line to my 10-local.rules:
4
5 # My Phone
6 BUS="usb", SYSFS{interface}="Sony Erics Memory Stick",
7 KERNEL="sd?1",NAME="%k", SYMLINK="phonemem", GROUP="users", MODE="0660"
8
9 Which sort of works. It creates the /dev/phonemem symlink to /dev/sdc1
10 when I plug my phone in. However instead of giving it the group
11 permissions I suggest it still selects disk:
12
13 malory rules.d # ls -l /dev/phonemem
14 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 9 01:00 /dev/phonemem -> sdc1
15 malory rules.d # ls -l /dev/sdc1
16 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 33 Jan 9 01:00 /dev/sdc1
17 malory rules.d # ls -l /dev/sdc
18 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 32 Jan 9 01:00 /dev/sdc
19
20 I was under the impression that configuring things in 10-local should
21 overide any of the following general stuff in the main body of rules.
22 Have I come across a bug or have I just not understood the subtly of
23 creating the rule?
