Re: Can I reboot a USB device within a driver's probe function?

Then you need to fix your script, as it can be determined from the environment variables that are passed to it by udev. Otherwise udev and scripts that trigger off of device discovery would not work very well :)

Aaaah! That's the puzzle piece I was missing! Yes, it makes sense now and, oh lookie here the information I get as environment variables when the script is invoked: DEVNAME=/dev/bus/usb/002/002 DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0c.0/usb2/2-1 I think I can work with that. :) Thanks!
