I'm running eudev-2.1.1 here with no issues. I don't have anything in my USE flag about udev and everything I plug in is managed just fine. I'm pretty sure your commands above is all I used as well. I don't recall running anything outside the norm.=20 Basically, after you switch, the OS doesn't see anything different. On mine here, even the init scripts have the same name. I was sort of expecting them to change from udev to eudev but it didn't.=20 If something is pulling udev back in, may want to add the -t option to emerge and see what is pulling it in.=20 Hope that helps.
