Hi, I plugged in my USB camera the other day and on a hunch figured it would be associated with /dev/video0 (or something close to it). I got lucky. Is there a place I can go to to see a list of devices and associated so I don't have to be so lucky? Thanks for the help. |

Which /dev device ?
Warning! Kind of new user here but I know this part :P
If you use Terminal and looked in /etc/fstab/ you can see your devices. You'll have to be Root and use an editor to modify and save changes to the File System Table(fstab). At the prompt as Root try this: nano /etc/fstab
Or to just view it you could just do this: cat /etc/fstab
I believe USB devices are, when mounted (i.e. available) are named sda or sdb etc. So this:
mount /dev/sda
cd /dev/sda
May get you access.
