base 2.7.7 libudev 2.6.0 Internal Program Version: eudev 3.1.5 Udev creates and removes device nodes in /dev for devices discovered or removed from the system. It receives events via kernel netlink messages and dispatches them according to rules in /lib/udev/rules.d/. Matching rules may name a device node, create additional symlinks to the node, call tools to initialize a device, or load needed kernel modules. http://dev.gentoo.org/~blueness/eudev
