Description Marcin Kryczek (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-08-25 09:07:32 UTC
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
Comment 2 Marcin Kryczek (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-08-25 15:31:12 UTC
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.
