Yes, the broken symlinks are from the sysinit runlevel. I checked another system of mine and it *also* has these broken symlinks ... :-/ So, whatever mistake I made, I must have made it at least twice! LOL! Shouldn't the openrc or udev ebuild remove the symlinks, back when they became depracated? > >I'm not saying the above missing symlinks are causing the bluetooth > >problem, but those symlinks should not be there.

Also, udev-settle is not in my sysinit runlevel. -- Regards, Mick
