After merging kernel 2.6.15 to my system, all event (/dev/input/event*) devices dissappered. Updating udev to latest solved the problem. Prevous config was 2.6.14/udev-70.
The kernel has no udev dependancies, as you are running unstable in order to get this version of the kernel, there is no reason you shouldn't have also upgraded udev a while ago :)

Then how do you propose to solve this?
We should just mark a newer udev release stable, or are there some serious bugs in the way?
I think he is saying we need to mark a newer udev stable. Assuming 070 doesn't work with 2.6.15, then this is correct.
I pushed mine up to 079 as a saftey net (of course, I have any kernel _rc* hard masked locally), and that so far hasn't given me problems.
Yeah, I meant we need to stabilize some later udev version. FWIW, I've been using 079 for three weeks and haven't had any issues with that one, but you must know better which version is 2.6.15 friendly and ready for stable. :-) Thanks.
I don't have a problem marking it stable, and just tried to, but there is a dependancy on a specific version of baselayout that also must be stable, and it isn't marked as such yet :( udev needs 1.11.14 or greater to work properly now. So, care to add another blocking bug somewhere?

yes, i was going to do it sunday nite (EST)
udev 079 is now marked stable.
