Ah, in that case there has been a lot of changes to the udev package
in the meantime, so it is likely the culprit. In particular, we are no
longer loading as many modules by default as we used to do. Are you
using oss emulation? Then you'd have to load those modules manually.

Thanks for the info. Did you see those "file not found" errors more than once?

Did downgrading udev fix it for you? Does it work with our lts kernel?

Cheers,
