After mulling my last post over, several questions come to mind. I am referring to this:

1. Why does this vendor ID occur in two different rules files (99-indi_auxiliary.rules and 25-gspd-usb.rules)?
2. What is the significance of the numbering inherent in the rules file names? Do lower numbers get processed first or last?
3. When a matching device is found in different rules files, which rule is followed? Is the first matched rule followed or the last?
4. What is the significance of MODE="0666"? Why is this entry much shorter than the others in 25-gspd-usb-rules?
5. Should this particular item (the USB-RJ cable) be in 25-gspd-usb.rules at all?
6. Should an entry for it be created in 69-libftdi.rules?
