Question one: You using baselayout 2 or 1? |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
I ran into this the other day and I just recompiled a new kernel with |
| 36 |
the CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED option disabled. It's under the General |
| 37 |
Setup screen as: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Create deprecated sysfs layout for older userspace tools |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
I'm pretty sure that is it. After you disable that and reboot, |
| 42 |
everything should go back to normal. I don't have MythTV or anything so |
| 43 |
I hope everything will go back to normal on that too. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
Hope that helps. |
