when trying to login via ssh, so I cannot login anymore. Though I'm not sure it the problem is on their side, or it's somehow caused by Arch update (udev, maybe?).
Got a reply from support very quickly: "Unfortunately some update you installed on Arch has broken this. I've recreated the devices for you and the script will now work from our control panel as well."
My vps runs on xen and this udev update http://www.archlinux.org/news/457/ killed my arch vps too.
But my provider temporally replaced the Arch Kernel with a newer Debian Kernel so i could compile a new Kernel with Xen support.
