That seemed like a good idea. So I modified my rules file as follows:
# Setup Prolific Technology Inc. USB-Serial Controller dongles for statice names
KERNEL=="ttyUSB0", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb-serial", ATTRS{busnum}=="6", ATTRS{devnum}=="3", DRIVERS=="pl2303", SYMLINK+="tty_dgl0"
KERNEL=="ttyUSB1", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb-serial", ATTRS{busnum}=="7", ATTRS{devnum}=="5", DRIVERS=="pl2303", SYMLINK+="tty_dgl1"
and no symlinks were created although /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1
exist and they came up in the order that I want (probably will change
on the next restart).
