If so, what are the permissions there? What about /dev/cdrom? What does "/sbin/cdrom_id /dev/hdc" report? You can also try setting udev_log=7 in /etc/udev/udev.conf, run udevstart, and take a look at the messages in /var/log/messages to see what devices udev is seeing, what rules it is matching for those, and what devices and links it is creating. > likewise video is missing: > ls -alg /dev/video > ls: /dev/video: No such file or directory The default rules for udev (in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules) makes framebuffer devices in /dev/fb/, with symlinks at /dev/fbX. The only 'video' devices are for capture cards, and are created as /dev/v4l/videoX, with symlinks as /dev/videoX. What device are you expecting at /dev/video? -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
