Is it possible to go from "systemd" to "udev"?

I don't like the way systemd works.  I have a problem with mounting USB

(it mounts as root:root) and I can not even change the permission.
I am receiving Hylafax fax transmission reports (email) on all incoming
faxes and now these emails are empty.
It all start happening after switching to systemd :-(


If I'm not mistaken, systemd/udev doesn't mount removable devices by
default, it just notifies the system about new volume and creates
links under /dev/disk. In GNOME 3 udisks is the one doing the actual
mounting (AFAIU); with GNOME 2 it was gnome-volume-manager, etc.

What DE do you use? Are you using something like pmount?

I'm using XFCE It all started to happen after I switched to systemd.  So
maybe on the weekend I'll try to switch one of the machine back to udev.
I think all I need is to unmerge "systemd" and emerge "udev" without
rebooting.

As others have said, udev *IS* systemd. It's the same code and
configuration [1].

And if you don't reboot after uninstalling systemd (while having
booted with it), I don't think your system will stay stable for much
longer.

I see that thunar depends on gvfs, which can use udisks or
gnome-disk-utility. Which one do you have? What does portage it says
when you do:

emerge -pv gnome-base/gvfs

If you have the gdu USE flag enabled, I recommend switching to udisks.
It's possible that it will fix everything, but I have never used Xfce,
so I'm not certain.

Regards.

[1] http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/tree/src/udev

I have: gnome-base/gvf with "gdu" flag disabled.
and sys-fs/udisks Installed versions: 2.1.0(2)(02:33:06 PM 12/28/2013)(gptfdisk introspection -cryptsetup -debug -selinux -systemd)

so it seems I have them both: gvfs and udisks.
Maybe I should enabled "systemd" flag in udisks since I"m using it already.
