I'm not sure what the modprobe is doing in there.  It is not that way in 
  Debian, but looks like the modules are loaded right from the udev 
rule.  So I don't know if you need to add that RUN+="/sbin/modprobe..." 
for the zip or not.  Mine would be ppa, but it could be imm.

Also be sure that you use whatever you got when you ran the udevinfo 
line, not just what I got on mine.  Your's might be different.  The 
spaces are important too in the strings for the model or vender.  Also, 
you are supposed to use the double equal signs as you see in other 
lines.  I made a note on that page about it, and probably need to put it 
at the top of the page instead of the bottom.  I doubt seriously that 
what you have here is going to work.  Did it?
