Hello.....

I just updated to Udev-030 and my modem stopped working. So I have to do;

Code:

ln -s /dev/ttyS4 /dev/modem

Is there a way to fix this so I don't have to do a link every time I reboot?

You have to edit your udev-rules. They are usually located in /etc/udev/rules.d and must all have the form *.rules
They are read in lexical order, so you can just create a 10-local.rules file in that directory, and put the following line in it :

Code:

KERNEL="ttyS4", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="modem"

That's all.
