Thanks to wonderful Mint community I finally managed to install Mint 8 on a HDD and see how the bug looks from there. It seems that the scope of the bug is smaller than I initially thought. A reboot fixes the problem. The bug only exists if you update udev and log out, but do not reboot the whole system.
This means that for a HDD installation the severity of this bug is small, but for a LiveCD a reboot is not an option for obvious reasons. -- Input freeze on udev update while on Live CD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/497512 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
