The serial number is different for each converter. So it seems like the value to use.
I have made a udev rule that should make a symlink to the device, and relax the permissions:
BUS=="usb", SYSFS{iSerial}=="A7004luX", MODE="0666", SYMLINK+="usbp2", OWNER="rst", GROUP="users"
After reloading the rules (udevadm control --reload-rules), I would like to see the symlink created when I plug in the device. Unfortunately, that is not the case.
For another device, I use SYSFS{idVendor} to determine the vendor. iSerial seems to be in the same group of variables. Perhaps it is not and only the lsusb listing makes it appear so.
A google of 'udev iSerial' returned nothing a all. How odd.
This command lists the complete names of the variables you can use in the udev rules file. udevadm info --query=all --attribute-walk --name=/dev/whatever.the.name.is Interesting that the serial value is a different name than the one shown in 'lsusb -v' or in 'udevadm monitor' when the device is plugged in. Is more really merrier? My rule should be: BUS=="usb", ATTRS{serial}=="A7004luX", MODE="0666", SYMLINK+="usbp2", OWNER="rst", GROUP="users" Yours sincerely, Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Office: Int +46 10-615 60 20 Mobile: Int +46 70-815 1696 roger.oberholtzer@ramboll.se ________________________________________ Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
