Bug 84465 – udev-054 on ~amd64 with 2004.3 profile does not set permissions.

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Dustin Knie 2005-03-07 19:56:51 UTC]

I recently did a fresh install of Gentoo 2004.3 on my 3500+ Athlon64.  I am running ~amd64 and installed udev prior to rebooting with 2.6.9 kernel.  I am now running 2.6.11, but udev will not set proper permissions on devices (everything appears to be set to 660).  I have gone as far as removing all but the most critical devices and rebooting and udev still creates the devices with the wrong permissions.  As a last ditch effort, I downgraded to 046 and perms are set properly now.  I have not tried 047-053 however.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install 2004.3 on an AMD64 and run unstable (~amd64)
2.Emerge udev-054
3.Reboot into system.
4.Login as an unpriviledged user., bash will report improper perms on /dev/null
5.ls -l /dev/* everything will be root:root, and 660

this applies to x86 too, at least for my AthlonXP system.

Brian: udev-056 works for me. ;-)

[Comment 3 Greg Kroah-Hartman (RETIRED) 2005-04-24 11:42:21 UTC]

Fixed in newer udev releases.
