Jeff, I think your concerns are pretty well real. The problem here though is not that Debian users should not be suggested not to file bugs upstream, the problem is that Debian should not go out of their way to patch stuff around.

udev allows Linux users to have a dynamic /dev directory and it provides the ability to have persistent device names. In this tip you will learn about creating the static SCSI device name for /block/sdd as /dev/scsiharddisk.

Yesterday I treated myself to a new mobile internet "dongle" to go with my Asus EEE PC. I decided to go for the Huawei E169G usb modem as it matches my black EEE, however there is a small problem with getting this device to work straight away.

Persistent names for devices April 18th, 2008 Since I put my workstation, which is at the same time the MythTV server / backend streamer for the family into a new case and added another TV card, I had some issues.

Although I’ve got persistent device naming etc. configured, I’m still hoping to fully grasp & master the needed configfiles for udev, hal etc. So I found a few links (lots of overlap but hey): HAL and device management A Linux Planet tutorial : Adding additional hard drives in Linux An ok article

Linux, UDEV, HAL, and removable drives. Thursday 17 April 2008 at 11:48 pm Now that I've metabolized the caffeine from the two-and-an-unknown-fraction pots of coffee I've drunk today (don't ask), I have it together enough to write about an unusually annoying glitch that plagues Linux users from
