udev rule to execute script when cd/dvd inserted

view story

https://bbs.archlinux.org – Why don't you use the attribute walk? See here http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev … l#udevinfo . Keep in mind though that this documentation seems a bit old. It is still relevent, but the suggested tool does not exist anymore and seems to have been replaced by udevadm.

Backlight controlled by udev rule 39 weeks 5 days ago

I would recommend using the method that brebs suggested. Is there a reason why you are set on using udev to do this? With systemd, today I discovered I can use the tmpfile.d directory to determine my backlight setting on boot. While with SysV I used the above method in my rc.local, which also worked great.
