When I tried to purge xserver-xorg-input-wacom (using aptitude) I got a conflict (it is a dependency of xserver-xorg-input-all). Should I purge the '-all' package? I guess it will require the reinstallation of some individual xserver-xorg-input-* packages instead?

udev warning
Hi, I noticed during boot a series of warnings coming from udevd. The following is an example warnings.

Actually I am not using initramfs. Would leaving /dev/console and deleting everything under /dev/.udev/ work? You should rm -rf /dev/.udev/, but it is better to leave the rest of /dev alone. That way you may be able to access the system even if udev breaks completely. Actually I only know about the problem of /dev/console being necessary from my own experience. I once moved my root filesystem to another partition using cp -ax, not considering that this would leave out everything under /dev. The cloned root system worked fine until I booted a kernel without an initramfs. Sven -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
