Apparently on this mailing list there seems to be a lot of confusion about
when to use makedev and what argument to pass it.  Is there an official
guide that shows me exactly when I add an X to my system, that I need to
makedev Y and makedev Z?

I ask, because every time I get a new piece of hardware, I see many people
asking how to configure it yet there are no replies that end up being
anywhere close (even when some of the reply authors claim to run the exact
same piece of hardware).  

thank you for any help
