I'm starting a new thread as to deal with what to do about udev. The same system mentioned in the previous ethernet thread had become upgraded to udev-196-r1 (late one night when I was tired AND NOT THINKING TOO WELL............... I have since been on a roller_coaster ride with udev, almost eudev and version dev experimentations as an accident........... >From the last thread: I don't know what version of udev you're running (sorry if I missed it,) but the udev-186 elog says: "Upstream has removed the persistent-net and persistent-cd rules generator. If you need persistent names for these devices, place udev rules for them in /etc/udev/rules.d." I just sync and I have only have these versions of udev: Available versions: ~141-r1 ~146-r1^t ~149 ~151-r4 ~164-r2 171-r9 ~195^t ~196-r1^t **999 So unless somebody can give me good reason, I'm downgrading to udev-171 asap on this (only) system running udev 196....... (ps, I like to experiment, but not with udev et. al.) I even thinking or running 'emerge -e system' just to ensure nothing is missed? Suggestions are most welcome.
