Which means it failed trying to parse it.

That's not a valid mdev.conf line.  The uid:gid permissions fields are not 
optional.  (The last field is optional, but the first three aren't.)

Also, it stops at the first hit.  If you want a global check, put it at the 
_end_ of the file, not the beginning.
