Just discovered that this morning! Had made the assumption it was automatically enabled, but only clued onto it when I noticed udevmonitor wasn't giving only UEVENT output, not UDEV output. Should have been obvious, but I kept barking up the wrong tree! <br>
<br>So, turning out to be a good chance to learn how the lower levels of a linux system work and managed to learn exactly how udev works while stumbling on this one. <br>Thanks for the reply<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div></div>Maybe udev isn't running at all? The ELDKs including udev disable it<br>
per default (what version are you using?). Embedded systeme like to<br>
have static kernel configurations presenting no surprises at runtime...<br>
