Title: UDEV rules problem
Post by: mbertrand on September 11, 2012, 01:28:21 PM

I have a rule to make touch screen persistent. It is not working at boot but after boot if I call 'sudo udevadm trigger' it works.
Anyone know why. I've been working on this for over a month and getting no where. In Debian sqeeze the same rule worked.

Why don't you just put it in ~/.X.d ?

Hi mbertrand
Have you tried adding  udevadm trigger  to your  /opt/bootlocal.sh? If that fails, Try placing a script in ~/.X.d that contains:

Code: [Select]

sudo udevadm trigger

Yes, but should I have to. Udev is suppose to take care of this at start-up. It does so for manu other harware.

Hi mbertrand
If the rule and/or touch screen require X to be running in order to function, then yes, you have to. Also, I seem
to recall reading in the forums, if you add a rule, you still have to tell udev to update itself.

Then put it in  /opt/bootsync.sh
