A bit of googling revealed that the kernel option CONFIG_DMIID is missing. Please include a check to the ebuild. Cheers, Nico Reproducible: Always
Thanks for reporting your discovered solution; a message noting the kernel option sounds like a good suggestion. Assigning to pommed maintainer.
Fix in version 1.30
