According to http://www.teamspeak.com/?page=faq&cat=ts3server#ts3server_instancecheckerror the server uses /dev/shm to ensure only a single instance is running if no license is used. While this worked with tmpfs it seems to be broken with devtmpfs (suggested by 2013-01-23-udev-upgrade). Log entry after start: 2013-01-27 13:02:49.936616|ERROR |ServerLibPriv | | Server() error while starting servermanager, error: instance check error If one changes back to tmpfs on /dev/shm the server starts fine. As i don't know the details if this is can be handled by startup script/permissions etc. or needs a fix from upstream i hope this is a good place for this information. Starting as root user also works (but is of course not the solution).

-> RESO INVALID, here's why: the news item is talking about /dev. thats *only* /dev not for example /dev/shm having /dev/shm not in fstab at all is also fine these days (i at least can't renember having it in lately) so having shm mounted as tmpfs is the right option.
Ok then i interpreted the news wrong. Thanks for the quick info.
