This has been discussed... was it on the desktop list I saw it? The |
| 9 |
answer is that udev should really be blocking hotplug now, at least in the |
| 10 |
newer versions (~arch is up to 104-r2, tho it looks like stable amd64 is |
| 11 |
clear back on 87-r1), but isn't for some reason. Try unmerging hotplug and |
| 12 |
remerging udev, and see if that solves the issue. It has for others. |

The one thing that you might lose that way is autodetect and early setup |
| 15 |
of your network, but most folks don't seem to have a problem with that, as |
| 16 |
it's picked up later in the boot cycle anyway. (The problems in fact seem |
| 17 |
to generally be that hotplug is trying to setup networking too early, when |
| 18 |
there is a problem, so again, getting it out of there fixes the problem.) |

In any case, it's not as if hotplug is a long merge, if unmerging it |
| 21 |
doesn't work for you, but the reports are all good that I've seen, and |
| 22 |
certainly I've experienced no issues unmerging hotplug here, altho I'm |
| 23 |
running ~amd64 so likely have newer versions of a lot of stuff than stable |
| 24 |
amd64 users do. |
