I'm not exactly sure if this is the reason that things aren't working but I can't really go further on the lkml without checking that my versions of everything are up-to-date. I realise that udev is fairly critical in terms of being able to get a working system so I'm reluctant to just go ahead and make the upgrade without having some idea of the likelyhood of buggering my box to oblivion. Currently running 2.6.7-rc3 on a Slackware 10.1 install that comes with udev 050, 2.6.13-rc6 requires udev 058. So, my question is, how easy is it going to be for me to kill my box? Any tips on upgrading udev?
