Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: udev
Similar to bug #460388, changes to udev cause issues when karmic is
used with earlier kernels. Using a 2.6.18-16-generic kernel (latest one
I could find before the one in karmic) under karmic, I was unable to get
the sound card devices to appear without adding in these rules from the
Debian udev package.
# ALSA devices
KERNEL=="controlC[0-9]*", NAME="snd/%k"
KERNEL=="hwC[D0-9]*", NAME="snd/%k"
KERNEL=="pcmC[D0-9cp]*", NAME="snd/%k"
KERNEL=="midiC[D0-9]*", NAME="snd/%k"
KERNEL=="timer", NAME="snd/%k"
KERNEL=="seq", NAME="snd/%k"
I realise that the 2.6.18-16-generic kernel isn't in karmic, but I can
imagine that more than a few people might want to use earlier kernels,
especially if the latest is giving them issues. In my case, I'm
experiencing random freezes before the machine has even been up 24
hours.
