Description Slava Gorbunov 2012-12-24 10:10:52 UTC

I've just upgraded udev to version 196-r1 (from udev-182-r3), and now it doesn't auto-load modules for my hardware (for example, ethernet and wifi). Previous version didn't have this problem.

I'm running kernel 3.7.1-gentoo.

Portage 2.2.0_alpha149 (default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop, gcc-4.5.3, glibc-2.12.1, 3.7.1-gentoo x86_64)

Comment 1 Rafał Mużyło 2012-12-24 14:46:58 UTC

More info about your system is required.

The minimum is 'emerge -1pv sys-fs/udev'.
A detail or two about your setup (i.e. are you using initramfs, is CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT set, etc.) might matter too.

Comment 2 Slava Gorbunov 2012-12-24 15:20:12 UTC

Thank you, the problem seems to be solved. For some strange reason on my system udev was merged with USE=-kmod (perhaps I did 'emerge --sync' before this use-flag was added).
