I just upgraded udev-087-r1 to udev-103 and now the acx kernel module (net-wireless/acx) fails most of the times to load. Some times, after multiple rmmods and modprobes, it loads OK (say one OK for 5 to 10 NOK) and so provide a usable net.wlan0 iface: Since i never had this problem before, i suspect udev to be guilty here, or at least that it reveals a pre-existing problem in acx. But as i kown nothing about udev, it may have nothing to do with this, it just seems to to me since it is the only package i upgraded. --------- FAILURE log acx: this driver is still EXPERIMENTAL acx: reading README file and/or Craig's HOWTO is recommended, visit http://acx100.sf.net in case of further questions/discussion acx: compiled to use 32bit I/O access.
