Package: udev Version: 0.089-1 Severity: normal I upgraded my gnome-desktop-environment package to testing, which gave me udev 0.089-1, from 0.056-3 (sarge). On reboot I noticed two things were missing:
#1. my bttv capture card no longer works. (no /dev/video2 node) #2. Sound no longer works (/usr/sbin/alsactl: save_state:1163: No soundcards found.. no /dev/dsp file) After some testing my reduced both problems to udev not creating device nodes for these devices. I can't find any error messages from udev (do they get logged in /var/log/messages or somewhere else?) but sysfs2 seems to see the sound stuff, and all three capture cards. udev does create video nodes for my cx88xx capture boards, but not the bt878 board. The bttv is the more urgent problem, but I hope I could get both fixed. I'm running a 2.6.13-ck5 kernel (which was the same when everything was working with udev 0.056-1) on an AMD64 3200+ machine. I'm running debian sarge (i386 not ia64) with some testing/unstable packages. A fix may be to create a custom udev rule for the bttv card, but I can't figure out how to. Thank you. (I hope I have no addedd too much to the noise, as I see udev has many more bugs than say libsysfs2) -- Package-specific info: -- /etc/udev/rules.d/: /etc/udev/rules.d/: total 4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2005-06-21 10:40 020_permissions.rules -> ../permissions.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2006-04-01 13:05 025_libgphoto2.rules -> ../libgphoto2.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2006-05-02 12:19 050_hal-plugdev.rules -> ../hal.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 82 2006-03-05 17:14 90-hal.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2005-06-21 10:40 cd-aliases.rules -> ../cd-aliases.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2005-06-21 10:40 udev.rules -> ../udev.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 2006-05-02 12:19 z20_persistent-input.rules -> ../persistent-input.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2006-05-02 12:19 z20_persistent.rules -> ../persistent.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2005-07-05 17:15 z50_run.rules -> ../run.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2006-05-02 12:19 z55_hotplug.rules -> ../hotplug.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2006-05-02 13:03 z60_alsa-utils.rules -> ../alsa-utils.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2005-07-05 17:15 z70_hotplugd.rules -> ../hotplugd.rules -- /sys/: /sys/block/fd0/dev /sys/block/hda/dev /sys/block/md0/dev /sys/block/md1/dev /sys/block/ram0/dev /sys/block/ram10/dev /sys/block/ram11/dev /sys/block/ram12/dev /sys/block/ram13/dev /sys/block/ram14/dev /sys/block/ram15/dev /sys/block/ram1/dev /sys/block/ram2/dev /sys/block/ram3/dev /sys/block/ram4/dev /sys/block/ram5/dev /sys/block/ram6/dev /sys/block/ram7/dev /sys/block/ram8/dev /sys/block/ram9/dev /sys/block/sda/dev /sys/block/sda/sda1/dev /sys/block/sda/sda2/dev /sys/block/sda/sda3/dev /sys/class/graphics/fb0/dev /sys/class/input/event0/dev /sys/class/input/event1/dev /sys/class/input/event2/dev /sys/class/input/event3/dev /sys/class/input/event4/dev /sys/class/input/mice/dev /sys/class/input/mouse0/dev /sys/class/input/ts0/dev /sys/class/misc/agpgart/dev /sys/class/misc/hpet/dev /sys/class/misc/psaux/dev /sys/class/sound/adsp/dev /sys/class/sound/audio/dev /sys/class/sound/controlC0/dev /sys/class/sound/dsp/dev /sys/class/sound/mixer/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0p/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D1c/dev /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D1p/dev /sys/class/sound/seq/dev /sys/class/sound/sequencer2/dev /sys/class/sound/sequencer/dev /sys/class/sound/timer/dev /sys/class/video4linux/radio0/dev /sys/class/video4linux/radio1/dev /sys/class/video4linux/vbi0/dev /sys/class/video4linux/vbi1/dev /sys/class/video4linux/vbi2/dev /sys/class/video4linux/video0/dev /sys/class/video4linux/video1/dev /sys/class/video4linux/video2/dev -- Kernel configuration: -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.13-ck5 Locale: LANG=en_CA, LC_CTYPE=en_CA (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages udev depends on: ii initscripts 2.86.ds1-1 Standard scripts needed for bootin ii libc6 2.3.6-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libselinux1 1.30-1 SELinux shared libraries ii libvolume-id0 0.089-1 libvolume_id shared library ii lsb-base 3.1-4 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii makedev 2.3.1-77 creates device files in /dev ii sed 4.1.2-8 The GNU sed stream editor udev recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
