this box.

Worked for me :-)
I've got a question regarding this switch: Can sys-fs/devfsd be unmerged
or is it still somehow needed?

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

last time I tried that, I got a unusable box. That was, when I decided to stay
with devfs... it does not hurt me... and doesn't do udev slow down the
booting?

Or, just install udev.
The init scripts will work the rest out.

Tim,
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
error calling unlink in "GLOBAL"
I still had one more problem. gdm wouldn't start since my xorg.conf
file said /dev/mouse

Install udev as in portage. Then edit the kernel to remove devfs -
recompile and reboot.
Job done, it should say using udev at bootup.

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. (2.6.11-
