Hi-- So I have 3 machines that on which debian testing runs (which should be essentially identical). Recently udev (and friends) appeared, and on two of the machines, this was seemless. On the third, I now have no /dev/sd* at all (no /dev/sda1 e.g.) -- it is my wife's computer and so I didn't notice for a while...sigh.
I suspect on that machine I was slower to get the 2.6.12 kernel -- which was required -- installed. So that probably explains the problem. But it doesn't explain how to fix it. I've tried "dpkg-reconfigure"-ing hal and udev and hotplug and even the kernel, to no avail. I note that the scsi.agent doesn't seem to have been activated (I don't see it in /var/log/* whereas I do see messages about scsi.agent in /var/log/messages on the other two machines). Advice apprec. I'd provide more details, but I have no real idea what would be useful. All the best, gm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
