[mythtv-users] UDEV rules

[Hika van den Hoven]

Hoi Bill,

One more isue, What if you have two identical cards? Without a counter
of sorts you will only get one!

Tot mails,
  Hika                            mailto:hikavdh at gmail.com

"Zonder hoop kun je niet leven
Zonder leven is er geen hoop
Het eeuwige dilemma
Zeker als je hoop moet vernietigen om te kunnen overleven!"
