I'd shoot that down, too. Using udev in an

concern is we don't add a new range for
QE UARTs, that we use the same minors
for both CPM and QE.

Then it appears that the only possible solution is to assign numbers 46 - 53 to the CPM/QE and accept that it overlaps with the Altix. Is everyone okay with that?


I would much rather see these devices moved to a different minor range.
