Package: udev
Severity: serious
Justification: Renders unrelated packages unusable

Hi,

installing udev results in X not able to start.

I did a fresh install of my PC yesterday, using d-i2 (linux26). After 
that i upgraded to kernel-image-2.6.8-2 and installed and configured X.
Rebooted, works. So i installed gnome and GDM. Starting GDM works.

After rebooting, X is not beeing started complaining there is no
CorePointer present. So i debugged and found, there is no /dev/psaux and
/dev/input/mice present. 

Stopping udev via "/etc/init.d/udev stop" resolved the problem for me.

As quite a lot of people will install X and gnome with kernel-2.6, this
problem needs to be fixed before releasing sarge.

Greetings.
Martin
