IIRC udev creates the devices as soon as they appear in /sys.So I guess there is nothing udev can do about that. Probably the driver initialization just takes somes time. Several devices first need to upload some kind of firmware and then boot a DSP processor before you can use them. My dec2000t box needs ~10s to do that, for example. Whats the problem with modprobe ... sleep 9 start vdr ? Peter > > Cheers > > Sebastian
