I have just generated kernel 2.6.39-r3 (oldconfig from 2.6.34, no changes). When I boot into the new kernel, udev hangs forever on "Waiting for uevents to be processed" Reproducible: Always Actual Results: see description Expected Results: see description • The kernel has been produced with genkernel-3.4.16. • The config has been taken from the last working 2.6.34-r6 kernel. • One single modification has been made in menuconfig: general setup/local version=-01 • I have set mesa to gallium as suggested — this works flawlessly with 2.6.34-r6 and probably has no impact. • I have been waiting over 30 minutes for udev to check for udev events being processed before giving up. After 30 minutes, it's probably “forever”.

Which version of udev is installed ? Were there any warnings during building udev ?
• The version is udev-164-r2 • When rebuilding the package, I saw that there was indeed a warning that CONFIG_IDE (which is part of the deprecated ATA settings) should not be set. I then disabled the whole deprecated ATA stuff, generated a new kernel, and re-tested. Unfortunately, udev still hangs in the same place.

I'm leaning on this being a support question, not a bug, but... Did you migrate to baselayout2 properly (i.e. is udev in sysinit runlevel) ? 'lspci -k' would me more interesting than plain 'lspci'. 'emerge --info', please - among other, glibc might be of interest (some of the inotify kernel stuff needs a recent enough glibc, IIRC - though I might just be mixing up things).

Try with current stable =sys-fs/udev-197-r3 (stable on amd64, others soon, you can keyword, it's quite safe). Lowest version of kernel it supports is 2.6.39, but try with something modern from 3.x series preferably. Reopen if this is any problem with current packages.
