Are there any instructions about on how to take an older machine (18
months) and switch it to udev from devfs? I see that udev is in
portage so I can emerge that, but how do I tell the machine which to
use? Is it automatic upon reboot?
The machine has been updated to a new gentoo-sources.
Install udev as in portage. Then edit the kernel to remove devfs -
recompile and reboot.
Job done, it should say using udev at bootup.

Yes, basically correct. I didn't remove devfs, but I did change the
opton to tell it not to mount at boot time. That was enough to get rid
of some messages that said

I still had one more problem. gdm wouldn't start since my xorg.conf
file said /dev/mouse

Additionally, the guide to writing udev rules by Daniel Drake
(thanks a lot) has been updated:

Tell it to use udev by adding gentoo=nodevfs to your kernel-commandline.
Other way: Remove support for /dev filesystem (DEVFS) from your kernel.
Or, just install udev.
The init scripts will work the rest out.

Because no one mentioned it. There is also a Gentoo udev Guide:

Thanks to all for your answers.
Everything except Video4Linux seems to be working. I'm sure v4l is
some oversight on my part.
cheers,
