After what happened with bug 36847, I reverted back to genkernel 1.9 from genkernel 3.0.1_beta2. However, my problems weren't ended. ;) I recompiled my old and well tested 2.4.23_pre8 kernel, after having merged the "-rc2". (In the order, to be more clear: 1) I compiled the 2.4.23_pre8 2) I merged gentoo-dev-sources 2.6.0 3) I merged genkernel 3.0.1-beta2 4) I configured/compiled the 2.6.0. I did a bad configuration, so I though that it was better to stuck with the 2.4 series for awhile... 5) 2.4.23_pre8-rc2 came out. I merged it 6) Used genkernel 3.0 to build the 2.4.23_pre8-rc2. I made trivial changes to my network configuration, but no change at everything else 7) Had bug #36847 8) Reverted to genkernel 1.9 9) Rebuilt 2.4.23_pre8-rc2 10) It booted! But then... ) The system boots, but when it try to start hotplug it complains and it says: "hotplug can't synthesize input events - /proc/bus/input/devices missing" So hotplug doesn't work. How can I fix this? I'll attach my kernel config file and a Please note that I had no problem before this genkernel mess-up (with other 5/6 different kernels). It could be 2.4.23_pre8-rc2, or it could be (?) the init file? ---------------------------------- Portage 2.0.49-r20 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.3.2, glibc-2.3.2-r3, 2.4.23_pre8-gss-r2) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.23_pre8-gss-r2 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.12 distcc 2.12.1 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=pentium4 -funroll-loops -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.1/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=pentium4 -funroll-loops -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://128.213.5.34/gentoo/ http://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/download/gentoo-mirror/ http://ftp.gentoo.skynet.be/pub/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X aalib alsa apm arts avi berkdb bonobo cdr crypt cups doc dvd encode esd foomaticdb gdbm gif gnome gpm gtk gtk2 gtkhtml guile imap imlib java jpeg kde libg++ libwww mad maildir mikmod motif mozilla mpeg mysql ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl oss pam pcmcia pdflib perl png python qt quicktime readline sasl sdl slang spell ssl svga tcltk tcpd tetex truetype x86 xml2 xmms xv zlib video_cards_i810 video_cards_i830"

-> Bug 37375
Tried using last hotplug version known working (I know because I'm sure that with that version the error wasn't returned). Nothing changed, I still continue having the same troubles.
I am going to move things to bug #37375, as its a dup. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 37375 ***
