 You can use udevadm to see the variables set by udev for a device. This is helpful if you want to get information about the device, based on whether it has a DVD or a CD in there, for example. You can use udevadm to see the variables set by udev for a device.

 +If you want to change any rules, such as in ''/lib/udev/rules.d'' or ''/etc/udev/rules.d'', you can reload them with udevadm as well:

 +<code>
 +udevadm trigger
 +</code>

 +That's what I use when doing my onevent trayclose calls.
 +
 +In ''/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules'' I generate a symlink to ''/dev/dvd'' and ''/dev/bluray'', as well as call ''onevent.trayclose'' when there is a DVD detected in the drive on an event change (tray closed from being open).
