There is no kernel option for udev. Make sure that the file
/dev/.devfsd does not exist. If this file exists, /sbin/rc will disable
udev.
I got rid of the file, and now X cannot see my mouse, and refuses to start.
I think the problem is that it used to be /dev/mouse and is now /dev/input/mouse0
or some such. I'm not sure. I don't know where the Xorg config file is,
so I don't know what to change. (I used to know when I used XFree, but
I didn't track the whole switchover).

Run "alsaconf" and save the results when prompted.
I never get prompted. It just says everything's okay, and quits. The message
remains.
