[oe] Angstrom, udev, and kernel version

[Steffen Sledz]

Since Angstrom updated to udev_151 we've a big problem.

udevd started from within /etc/init.d/udev crashes with

/sbin/udevd -d --debug
1266997931.250494 [297] udev_monitor_new_from_netlink: error getting socket: Invalid argument error initializing netlink socket
1266997931.250718 [297] main: error initializing netlink socket

Searching the internet for this error i found some hints that this udev version requires at least linux 2.6.27. Unfortunately we are forced to use 2.6.24 because of special driver/machine support for hipox. :(

Is there a way to rollback to udev_141 for hipox machine?

Or is there a backport patch available for 2.6.24 to support udev_151?
