Hmm, from my patch tascam_fw and tascam_fpga are installed to /lib/udev. The udev rules are calling these scripts which are almost doing what your udev rule is doing manualy, isn't it? There is one user [0], who came along with an rule similar to the attached which still works. My intention is not do rewrite usx2yloaders, but optimize it for distribution. I don't know whether upstream is active to help? A statement from Karsten Wiese would be helpfull at that point ;) But if your rule works for sure, I can distribute it with your allowness. There are still ugly sh -c calls I don't understand yet.
