I use exclusively udev systems on all my systems, amd64 and x86. I've had no problems at all, except the first time when I tried to migrate from devfs to udev. All my pure udev installs have workes flawlessly. Plus, it works better with things like Gnome Volume Manager that devfs does. Daniel -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
