Description Daniel Pielmeier gentoo-dev 2007-04-21 09:49:31 UTC
On system boot i got this error mesasge

*** err [lib/liblow.c(329)]:
/dev/gpmct1: No such file or directory

When the system has finished boot process /dev/gpmctl is available under /dev.
So i seems it is created to late at boot up.
Maybe a wrong order in some init files.

I found an old issue concrning this which was solved b adding

need local 

in 

/etc/init.d/gpm

Reproducible: Always
