test script don't work anymore and some other issue

[mjl]

hello
today I tried to see why some udev entries aren't created such as tty one
so I gone into test subdir after rebuilding (wiht klibc, no issue) and 
what a surprise the test script don't work anymore (but hotplug/udev 
does since I got entries when pluging a usb device....)

so here are my questions :
1)howto force generation of "coldplug events" such as tty
2)the entries created aren't removed when unpluging, is it normal? what 
to do to make them removed?

regards

Try the init script '/etc/init.d/udev start'.
It creates all devies available in sysfs.

Try 'rm /udev/.udevdb'.
Yesterday we fixed the big in the current tree where the db is not compatible
with switching libcs, cause of the size of mode_t.
