I am using Debian "Testing". A few days ago, I did a dist-upgrade and also
installed a new kernel:
Old kernel: 2.6.5-1-386
New kernel: 2.6.12-1-k7
There are two problems:
OLD KERNEL:
X11 is not starting now. Something wrong with the touchpad.
$ ls -l /dev/psaux
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 10, 1 2004-05-21 /dev/psaux
$ cat /dev/psaux
cat: /dev/psaux: No such device
# cat /dev/psaux
cat: /dev/psaux: No such device
All /dev files are present in the old kernel.
NEW KERNEL:
Many of the files in /dev are missing.
$ aumix
aumix: error opening mixer
$ ls /dev/mixer
ls: /dev/mixer: No such file or directory
$ dpkg -l udev
ii udev 0.074-2 /dev/ and hotplug management daemon
X11 and the touchpad are fine in the new kernel.
