Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: udev
Somehow in a tangled intrepid->jaunty upgrade, /sbin/udevadm went
missing. This caused keyboard and mouse to be dead at GDM login window
(initial input layer probe fail?) and lots of other things to be borked
(barely any modules loaded, /dev/null permission errors from the shell).
Fix was to dpkg --install /var/cache/apt/archives/udev*.
But how in the world did this happen?
The only seriously unusual thing I did in the upgrade was run sudo dpkg-
reconfigure -a afterwards. (I did that because I noticed that
flashplayer, among other things, had some failures in config during the
install. Reconfigure fixed that.)
