[SOLVED] what happened to udevadm?

crackpipe · 03-07-2015, 10:21 PM

Hmm...

Code:

$ udevadm
udevadm: missing or unknown command

# udevadm
udevadm: missing or unknown command

$ systemctl |grep udev
  systemd-udev-trigger.service        loaded active exited    udev Coldplug all Devices
  systemd-udevd.service               loaded active running   udev Kernel Device Manager
  systemd-udevd-control.socket        loaded active running   udev Control Socket 
  systemd-udevd-kernel.socket         loaded active running   udev Kernel Socket

Meanwhile, other systemctl related commands working normally, eg...

Code:

# systemctl start org.cups.cupsd.service

What am I overlooking?

You need to run it with a command eg

Code:

udevadm monitor

Code:

udevadm -h
Usage: udevadm [--help] [--version] [--debug] COMMAND [COMMAND OPTIONS]
  info         query sysfs or the udev database
  trigger      request events from the kernel
  settle       wait for the event queue to finish
  control      control the udev daemon
  monitor      listen to kernel and udev events
  hwdb         maintain the hardware database index
  test         test an event run
  test-builtin test a built-in command

Thanks, man. Stupid of me not to check the switches. That kind of fail looked to me like an entirely missing command. I'll mark it solved.

You're welcome.
