kernel 2.6.5 udev-024-r1 , and a muti-card reader, identified as: Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0dda:0001 Integrated Circuit Solution, Inc. and named Sweex USB (1.1) 6in1 card reader. The last time I used it, it was working properly, and the CF card I use is tested OK. All my USB devices work properly, including digital camera and USB stick. When I plug in my Multi-card-reader, this happens: Code: Apr 15 14:30:42 gentoo usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using address 2 Apr 15 14:30:42 gentoo SCSI subsystem initialized Apr 15 14:30:42 gentoo Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...

However: Code: mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/CF mount: No medium found If I revert to udev-0.232-r1, the card reader works as it has always done before. If you need more info, just tell what info.
What is the output of 'ls -l /dev/sd*' when using version 23 of udev?

Hm, udev created the same permissions, and the same nodes. So this isn't a udev issue at all, sorry. Hm, there is no release "udev-0.232-r1" what are you meaning there?
Greg, I know the permissions on /dev/sd* are identiccal. The version I meant was udev-0.23-r1, that's why I corrected the text. With this version the card reader works well. By ONLY upgrading to sys-fs/udev-024-r1 it will stop working as described: "no medium found". Thus it is udev-related in my humble opinion, and not resolved.
Greg, I have some further info that pinpoints the error. I'll describe this step by step, because it is pretty weird ;) I upgraded to udev-0.24-r1 again and ran etc-update, blindly overwriting my personalised /etc/udev/udev.rules. To my surprise, my CF reader, and everything works perfectly afterwards. Now I modify udev.rules in order to get my printer functioning properly. I add the following two lines to udev.rules: # Epson C82 BUS="usb", SYSFS_serial="0HS550304210308460", NAME="lp_epson" Printer works beautifully. Now comes the weird bit: after adding this line, I can no longer use the CF reader: the "no medium found"- error strikes again. When I comment (#) the line: # BUS="usb", SYSFS_serial="0HS550304210308460", NAME="lp_epson" the CF reader works properly again.. I can reproduce this as often as I want. The devices created by udev are (of course) identical with or without the line: BUS="usb", SYSFS_serial="0HS550304210308460", NAME="lp_epson" in my udev.rules. As stated before: in udev-0.23-r1, this issue did not occur. I hope this makes sense to you. Regards, AE
I updated to sys-fs/udev-025-r1 I experience the same problem as described above. I am sure this is a udev issue and it is not resolved.
By avoiding Code: BUS="usb", SYSFS_serial="0HS50304210308460", NAME="lp_epson" , SYMLINK="lp_epson" and using Code: BUS="usb", KERNEL="lp[0-9]*", NAME="usb/%k", SYMLINK="lp_epson" the printer works and the "no medium found" problem with my card reader no longer occurs. Thanks to dsd's suggestion: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=1097907#1097907 I still think this is a udev bug though.
I really do not see how this is a udev issue. Anyway, it looks to be fixed...
Well Greg, I do consider this to be a udev issue: If I apply a valid udev rule and this rule caused direct problems, I would say this is a udev-related problem. If I apply another udev-rule, I am able to circumvent the problem, not fix it. /me signing out
