There were multiple problems & I'm now back with udev-171 . (1) "Setting system clock using HW clock; can't access HW clock". (2) "Mounting local filesystems; mount point /dev/shm doesn't exist". (3) 'startx' : no mouse or keys. (4) 'dhcpcd' hangs. I tried revdep-rebuild , recompiled util-linux kdelibs mesa xf86-input-evdev xorg-server , recompiled glibc nvidia-drivers , recompiled the kernel (3.5.3) to enable DEVTMPFS , checked 'news' (nothing relevant), checked my archive of gentoo-user msgs (nothing relevant), rebooted many times between all these efforts. Has anyone else encountered anything like this ? Does anyone have any advice ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
