i've got this problem on two machines with stable gentoo. after boot, /dev/null looks like: crw-rw---- 1 root root 1, 3 mar 10 18:46 /dev/null i've checked in config: <root@cziksa>~: grep null /etc/udev/permissions.d/50-udev.permissions null:root:root:0666 so it looks ok here. also RC_DEVICE_TARBALL="yes" in /etc/conf.d/rc doesn't help (souldn't that setting mean that if i'll change permisions to /dev/null, it should be kept after reboot?) i know that udev-058 works on other machines just fine, so it's propably something in my environment, hovewer i don't have ideas what is it. any help appreciated
i'm pretty sure this has been fixed in newer udev versions
honestly i don't remember such kind of problems from my third gentoo instalation, which is running ~x86 (i've got it near 3 years now and i had -058 installed some time ago...) but i'll test newer versions of udev tommorow and let you know if that fixed the problem
Please test it and report back if it does or does not work.
sorry about long time, but i had some other problems. anyway - udev-059 works just fine. maybe it's good idea to stabilize it?
068 has been marked stable on x86 now, which will solve this.
