Can't mount camera with new udev 0.32 - [Solved]

ik0 · 2004-09-19 11:06:42

Today I found that I can't mount my camera (BenQ DC3410, but I don't think it's matters). I used to mount it as /dev/sda1 like normal USB storage device, but now there is not /dev/sda1.

There's no /dev/sda or /dev/usb/* . How to mount it ?!? I don't know is the problem in udev, but there was no problem before I upgrade udev .

Run "dmesg" as root and look at what usb-storage "says" there.
You could easily find the device that way.

dmesg shows :

usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using address 7

but there's no /dev/scsi . Should I mkdev or something ? I'm not sure how to make it. Or to write some udev.rules ?

Solved !

I start /etc/start_udev and everything is OK now Thanks anyway !

final question : Is it required to start /etc/start_udev after every update of udev ?

Hmm... I don't know, probably
I restart my system when core packages change (such as gcc, udev, kernel, libs*).

Make sure you are actually running your system with UDev (proper kernel params, see UDev wiki).
