No, the kind of terminal is irrelevant. I just didn't know how it was called in Ubuntu.

Obviously the udev rule didn't work. On my system, the udev rule files are named like "70-persistent-net.rules". Try putting a number in the filename. I don't know if it's required, but I know it affects the loading order (smaller numbers get loaded earlier). If this doesn't work, try a different udev rule (put a # in front of the other one):

KERNEL=="video?",SUBSYSTEM=="video4linux",ATTRS{subsystem_vendor}=="0x0070",ATTRS{device}=="0x0016",SYMLINK+="videopvr150",GROUP="video"

I copied the attributes from your first email. 



I hope this does it!
