Its just possible that leaving it as 'uucp' may break something. Just change the file and next time you boot your system the correction will be applied automatically. Another thing: be sure to keep a copy of 41-local.rules in a safe place (somewhere in your usual login's home directory is good provided its backed up. On paper is good too) because upgrades might delete the file and a clean install of a new version of Linux WILL delete it. Martin
