Moved /etc/vdev/vdev (a symlink) up one level -
I don't think that changed anything.
Changed pid file to /run/vdevd.pid -
fdisk now shows the removable drive, I can mount and unmount it.
mouse still doesn't work.
vdev still fails at boot, but if I start it after logging in,
it starts without error.
Changed log file to /var/log/vdevd.log -
That didn't get rid of the vdev_log_redirect error.
Added user to group 'input' -
still don't have keyboard or mouse control on the desktop.
/etc/init.d/vdev start|stop works, but I think restart isn't working right.
