An LFS from April 05, with the stock 50-udev.rules, 25-lfs.rules (which doesn't do anything suspicious, I think; certainly nothing related to my problem). 25-lfs.rules does duplicate some of the things in 50-udev.rules, but I think that's deliberate (they want to interfere with the stock install as little as possible, and the overrides take precedence). I've put my /etc/udev directory unmodified up here: http://devzero.co.uk/~alistair/udev/ If I reinstall 053 and reboot, everything that's broken on 067 works again. Do you need a specific hotplug installed? -- Cheers, Alistair. 'No sense being pessimistic, it probably wouldn't work anyway.'
