With applyset: Note that if any such nodes already exist, their mode will not be changed unless this rule (or ruleset) is explicitly applied (see below). The mode will be changed if the node is created after the rule is added (e.g., the atspeaker module is loaded after the above rule is added). devfs rule applyset Apply all the rules in the current ruleset to all the existing nodes. -GuidoReceived on Fri Feb 13 2004 - 06:32:54 UTC
