The better way of fixing this would be to port the module to the sysfs
so that udev finds the node automatically. Until then, this is actually
the only solution. Although later version of udev (starting with 023, I
think) has support for ppp and loop outside of sysfs, so your hiddev0
might be supported already (haven't paid enough attention to udev
mailing list to see what they changed)
