Hi All,

My turn to upgrade today to udev-103 and noticed the following symptoms:

1. My WiFi USB adaptor is no-longer detected at boot:  :(
=========================================================
Loading module: rt2500usb - CVS (N/A) by http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com.
rt2500usb->rt2x00_vendor_request: Error - vendor request error. Request 0x09 
failed for offset 0x0000 with error -110.
rt2500usb->rt2500usb_alloc_dev: Error - Failed to initialize device.
rt2500usb->rt2500usb_probe: Error - Failed to allocate device.
usbcore: registered new driver rt2500usb
=========================================================

On the other hand, pull it out and plug it back in works fine:
=========================================================
usb 2-1: USB disconnect, address 2
usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
wmaster0: Selected rate control algorithm 'simple'
wlan0: starting scan
wlan0: scan completed
wlan0: Initial auth_alg=0
wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:00:00:00:00:00
=========================================================
Does the detection of the adaptor at boot fail because of the order in which 
the module is loaded by udev?
PS. I did not have a wireless router in the vicinity at the time, hence the AP 
MAC number.

2. I am getting an error when udev starts at boot time:
=========================================================
udevd [622]: add_to_rules: unknown key `MODALIAS` 
in /etc/udev/rules.d/60-pcmcia.rules:4
udevd [622]: add_to_rules: unknown key `MODALIAS` 
in /etc/udev/rules.d/60-pcmcia.rules:10
udevd [622]: add_to_rules: unknown key `MODALIAS` 
in /etc/udev/rules.d/60-pcmcia.rules:14
=========================================================

The first relevant lines from this file are:
=========================================================
# modprobe $modalias loads all possibly appropriate modules
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pcmcia", MODALIAS=="?*", \
                RUN+="/sbin/modprobe $modalias"
=========================================================
Should I report this, or should I ignore it?

3. A stupid boot error I was getting for the last 2.5 years about my scanner 
(probably due to coldplug) is now gone - hurray!

TIA for any ideas on 1 & 2 above.

Mick
