Hi,
udev seems to ignore my custom rules since the last update.
my 00.rules:
# special custom created rules
# nvidia to group users
KERNEL="nvidia*", GROUP="users"
# logitech applet
# Logitech MX510
BUS="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}="046d", SYSFS{idProduct}="c01d", PROGRAM="/usr/bin/logitech_applet -s 800"This was fine but suddenly stopped working. I activated logging and checked the logs but udev seems only to accept rules from udev.rules. The permissions on both files (udev.rules and 00.rules) are the same.
Does anyone know what could be wrong?
btw the logitec_applet is a really great program to get the high resolution (800 dpi) working on logitech mice.
Before we could talk we were singing,
before we could run we were dancing.

Unrelated, but thanks for indirectly telling me about the logitech_applet. That thing is great! I've been trying to get the scroll buttons (buttons 8 and 9) to work properly on my Mx510 and now they do! 8)

EDIT: Ubuntu has also how-to for lmctl:

@Pentadrago: What is actually not working? Logitech applet or nvidia?

One more patch that might be needed for your kernel if you set highier dpi for the mouse:

Most info about all those programs and patches is from the gentoo forums.

Since I updated every rule in my 00.rules is ignored by udev.
It's as if this files doesn't exist.
Changing something in udev.rules has an effect but changing something in my udev.rules has none. Beforehand this worked. I really don't know what went wrong.

Well, 00.rules works for me, but I can't make
# video permissions
KERNEL="nvidia*", GROUP="users"
KERNEL="card[0-9]*", NAME="dri/%k", GROUP="users"work. I have no idea why.
Upgrading nvidia messed udev. I could use the last nvidia driver as a normal user. AFAIK the new nvidia has improved udev support. Anyone managed to get nvidia working as a normal user?
Note that I can use X and X apps with no problem. I have problems with the OpenGL apps - they don't work because of bad permissions.

KERNEL="sound/dsp*", SYMLINK="dsp"And they work:

nvidia belongs to group "video", why would you want to use "users"? Just add yourself to the "video" group.

No, it's "users". Try
cat /etc/groupand see for yourself.
