What distro are you using? In order to have udev and raw working
together, you need a new version of the raw userspace program (sorry,
forgot about this until right now.) I know SuSE ships it in their
distro, don't know about everyone else.
Also, why use raw at all? It's depreciated, nasty code, which no one
likes at all, and has no real-world use. It is also going to be ripped
out of the kernel entirely one of these days. The only people who like
it are people who want to create useless benchmarks...
thanks,
