Hello Nick, I checked your syslog-ng.conf. The only difference is logging to /dev/console instead of /dev/tty12. Just give it a try. I suggest to solve the problems in the order as they appear while booting. So first of all you need an working syslog-ng. I installed version 1.6.8-r1 with default syslog-ng.conf. Please try syslog-ng -s /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf;echo $? to check your config file.
After this please check your hotplug config: cat /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug It should be /sbin/udevsend. To find out what goes wrong you should make an lsusb which is provided by sys-apps/usbutils.
