           Summary: udev rule oddity (/dev/random vs urandom)
           Product: openSUSE 10.3
           Version: Final
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Basesystem
        AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: jengelh@xxxxxx

In 50-udev-default.rules, we have:

50-udev-default.rules:KERNEL=="null|zero|random",       MODE="0666"
50-udev-default.rules:KERNEL=="urandom",                MODE="0644"

why is random 0666 while urandom is only 0644? If there was a security issue,
random would be 0644 too.
