Post subject:  Create fixed node for remote?

I have a working remote that uses the input layer and I can access through /dev/input/eventX

however, X changes from boot to boot. So I must change the conf (and restart lircd etc) each change.

I believe I can make a udev rule to give it a fixed node.

from here:

http://parker1.co.uk/mythtv_tips.php

Something like:
Code:
KERNEL=="event*",ATTRS{modalias}=="pci:v000014F1d00008800sv0000107Dsd0000665Fbc04sc00i00",SYMLINK="input/irremote"


in /etc/udev/rules.d/99-local.rules

should work, but it doesn't (the ATTRS{modalias} was coppied from udevinfo)...

Any ideas?

Thanks

The remote was bundled with the Leadtek Winfast DTV1000T
I am using R5E50, with the lirc that came with it.
