Question On Squeeze - udev warning messages at boot


After udev loads, I get this message repeated many times. System continues booting.

Quote:

I posted information about my hardware and my upgrade to squeeze at http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...loaded-850275/

Anything I can do to get rid of these messages? Thanks...

Try purging and reinstalling the packages that own the files udev is warning about.

Thanks, it appears the file is installed from package xserver-xorg-input-wacom which is depended upon by xserver-xorg-input-all. Since I don't want to start removing more packages than necessary, and because it's harmless, I'll leave things as they are.

xserver-xorg-input-all is just a metapackage. You can remove it safely (just watch that the actual driver packages (besides wacom) are not removed).

Thanks. The problem was fixed when I did a clean install of squeeze.
