Telinit 3 works OK, but the CPU is running like mad, nevertheless.
Going back into runlevel 5 doesn't stop it. Only a reboot.

It certainly did.

well, I don't have devfs. According to some bugzilla reports, quite
the opposite is needed. Warly posted something in his notes on
10.1, saying "disable devfs, enable udev"..... Confusing.

Nope. Keeps running at 99% .
And Anne, thanks for your support, I intend to report the bug in
bugzilla later today, but I have to pin the problem down a little
further in order to avoid too much verbosity.
And, for the fun of it, I found another solution that doesn't burn
my CPU :
Boot into Knoppix, where the camera shows nicely as another
harddisk, ftp the photos to my website and - being back in
Mandrake, ftp them home again. Where there is a will, there is a
way...
