#1 - any rules you create should NOT go into 50-udev.rules since, a)
that file gets replaced any time there is a udev package update and b)
rules are parsed alphabetically in the folder and the first rule
wins so
10-udev.rules would solve both those issues.
#2 - get the specific information about your device from either
udevinfo
or usbview when the device is plugged in.
See this link for really good ideas...

Well, after careful reading, I restated 50-udev.rules to original state
and wrote my own .rules as follows:
SUBSYSTEM=="tty" , NAME=="ttyUSB0" , SYSFS{dev}=="188:0" ,
PROGRAM+="/etc/udev/scripts/ipaq.sh"
since udevinfo -a -p /sys/class/tty/ttyUSB0 reports only SUBSYSTEM,
NAME and SYSFS{dev}.
I restarted udev with logging = info, and in /var/log/messages I saw
that my script is in fact run, but previous to the creation of
/dev/ttyUSB0 so the commands contained in my script are useless. So,
how can I make my script run AFTER the creation of /dev/ttyUSB0? The
creation is the last thing that udev do, but I have no clue how to
run something after that.
Any help or ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Mariano López Reta
how about /etc/dev.d ?? :)
I have a vague recollection of something like
RUN+="name of script"
Check the documentation for something like; look in the rules for
examples; then investigate whether the script is run before or after
the device creation.
