I had the exact same problem when switching to the 2.6 kernel and udev several months ago. After deleting .devfsd from the devices directory my CD burner was properly detected upon reboot, and the directory was populated with devices that were missing. There was a line in dmesg about .devfsd blocking at startup. Is .devfsd in your /dev directory? Run an "ls -al /dev | grep devfsd". If so, boot off a livecd and delete the file. Be sure that you aren't using a hybrid of devfs and udev before doing this. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
