Package: udev Version: 0.082-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
I have a system with an Asus motherboard with an on-board ethernet socket, and two RealTek PCI boards. Using hotplug, this works all the time. Using udev (which I was forced into today, with the new release of pcmcia-cs), the boards are inconsistently recognized. Several different boots has yielded different namings of the boards, and, worse, in some of the boots only one or two of the boards were recognized. I realize, from a cursory study of the documentation, that it is possible to learn how to formulate udev rules that may work around this problem. I could probably even figure out how to do it. But I don't think that the package is ready for release if if does not have default rules to handle this rather simple physical configuration. I am very willing to provide additional information and work with you maintainers to solve this problem. It only takes a few seconds to replace hotplug with udev, and to switch back. best regards Peder Chr.
