[gentoo-user] Udev (?) oddity

[Meino Christian Cramer]

Hi,

 the basic question is: Where should I start ?

 The problem: I updated several programs via emerge after they where 
 flagged by the emerge -up world command.

 beside others there were udev and util-linux...

 Before the update I had no problems with my dvbt-card and/or the
 modules needed to use it.


 After the update I did a etc-update and before overwriting the
 file under /etc/udev/ I comapered those installed with those, which
 will be used as update.

 I found nothing "dangerous" and nothing I had changed by hand, so I
 let etc-update its work.

 After the update they were not loaded anymore.

 I am not sure, whether udev is used to load the modules at all and I
 dont know, who is responsible for loading modules on demand.

 So I dont know for sure, which manpage I should read carefully to fix
 that bug.

 Any hint concerning this problem is very appreciated :)

 Thank you very much in advance !

 Keep haccking!

Probably emerge -uDp would be better...
