PATCH 1/1 : USB, Infiniband and X0R rules

Hi,

Those are the last custom slackware rules. They creates some devices in correct place (following devices.txt).

USB devices are moved to /dev/usb/name and Infiniband to /dev/infiniband/name.

The patch fixes X0R symlink, too. From devices.txt:

---
/dev/X0R null symbolic Required by iBCS-2

Note: /dev/X0R is <letter X>-<digit 0>-<letter R>.
---

Well, the patch is below:

USB devices are moved to /dev/usb/name

I've added these. Seems like a rather half-baken idea though, to group random stuff in a directory named after the bus the devices are connected to. Looks like someone tried to survive the 20.000+ entries /dev we had years ago. :)

Infiniband to /dev/infiniband/name.

I've added the infiniband.rules files to the packages/ directory. We can not put these into the default rules because distros already ship infiniband rules in their own package.

The patch fixes X0R symlink, too. From devices.txt:

Applied.

Thanks,
Kay
