Your bug is filed against Version: 1.0.16-2 > Your "wontfix" decision is based on false data, please remove the > "wontfix". > To tell you the truth, I happened to upgrade alsa-utils to the > squeeze version and my system broke due to udev, So why the bug against alsa-utils and not udev? > so I could not file a bug report with that version.

Which means that the binaries in alsa-utils don't need udev and > will run just fine without it. From above you can see that we are using a udev rule which runs /lib/udev/alsa-utils. And please check http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Changes_v1.0.23_v1.0.24 were udev is used to make the initialation of the big amount of existing sound devices much more easier. We will definitively append on udev in the future but maybe resign /etc/init.d/alsa-utils in the advantage of the new udev hook up and the configure option "--with-udev-rules-dir". I can't help you to set up udev in your system. This should be done by your self with the help of the Debian community.
