hello
today I tried to see why some udev entries aren't created such as tty one so I gone into test subdir after rebuilding (wiht klibc, no issue) and what a surprise the test script don't work anymore (but hotplug/udev does since I got entries when pluging a usb device....)

so here are my questions :
1)howto force generation of "coldplug events" such as tty 2)the entries created aren't removed when unpluging, is it normal? what to do to make them removed?

regards

Try the init script '/etc/init.d/udev start'.
It creates all devies available in sysfs.

Try 'rm /udev/.udevdb'.
Yesterday we fixed the big in the current tree where the db is not compatible with switching libcs, cause of the size of mode_t.
