Do you need help?

my udev-fu is very weak, but the %n substitutes the kernel supplied number. in which case you'll get lirc[0-9] depending on which event it matches. If you only have one ir port that you care about, then you'd probably always want it to be the *same* symlink regardless of which event it gets assigned to:

KERNEL=3D=3D"event[0-9]", ATTRS{name}=3D=3D"cx88 IR *", SYMLINK+=3D"lirc0"

Thinning the Hurd?

Can we help you?

I suggest you concentrate your efforts on finding out (and publish your results, of course). Once you can spoof their detection method you can get them to send you the files which you should be able to read despite the signature. Verifying the signature can come later. -- John Hasler End of debian-user-digest Digest V2007 Issue #2528 ************************************************** Received on Mon Oct 1 14:39:35 2007
