I'm running Testing, so my situation won't be exactly the same.
Everything still works, but not as easily. I have to manually install the
visor kernel module (to sync my Palm Tungsten T3) and the usblp module (to
print to my Laserjet). It seems that udev doesn't detect them.
I just noticed this morning that the Palm works better if the cradle's cable
is plugged directly into the computer's USB port, rather than a hub, so that
might be the problem (rather than udev).
Since the last upgrade in Testing, there's up to a one-minute delay between
inserting an SD card and the appearance of sda in /dev/, which means that
the drive can't be mounted for a relatively short, but irritating and
confusing time.

If you attempt to fix something that isn't broken, it will be.
