Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: udev

In one of the recent kernel updates, I've noticed the following
regression

When I hook up an external backup disk via e-SATA, the relevant /dev/sd*
entries are no longer being created.

This used to work reliably in Karmic Koala (9.10) up to about 1-2 months
ago.

The regression occurred in one of the recent upgrades (not sure which one 
exactly, sorry).
As of March 13, backups via e-SATA were still working, so the regression seems 
to have occurred in the second half of March 2010. 

When I hook the same drive via USB, the devices /dev/sdc and /dev/sdc[1-3] get 
created under /dev:
  15:02 $ ls -l /dev/sdc*
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 32 Apr 25 14:35 /dev/sdc
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 33 Apr 25 14:37 /dev/sdc1
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 34 Apr 25 14:35 /dev/sdc2
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 35 Apr 25 14:37 /dev/sdc3

But when I connect the same drive via e-SATA, they don't get created (as
they used to, 1-2 months ago).

Please let me know what additional information is needed so I can supply
it.
