Hi allI seem to have lost my /dev/ttyS0 file on my Ubuntu 12.04 server. I'm thinking that I can get udev to rebuild it. Does anyone know the command to reload or re-query without rebooting?I think it must be something to do with udevadm - I've tried "udevadm control reload_rules" to no avail...There's a modem hanging off COM1 (/dev/ttyS0), would /dev/ttyS0 get recreated by the udev daemon if I unplugged & replugged? The server is remote or I'd have tried it myself - I could get my remote "monkey" to do it but I'd rather not...I _can_ remote as a last resort.
Try, as root: cd /dev mknod ttyS0 c 4 64 chmod 660 ttyS0 chown root.dialout ttyS0 Good luck.. Gordon -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
