Usually they are easy to fix once we have a report, the problem is finding people who can report and reproduce them. I had a look at the udev in fedora (rawhide) and it should be almost identical to what we have in testing. It would be useful to know exactly what versions you are using (the newer the better) on both Arch and Fedora of both udev and the kernel, as well as more details about your problems: Do you have missing devices? Are there any differences between the loaded modules in a working and a broken system? Can you find any udev or module related bugs in your logs or dmesg? A useful exercise is to do "modprobe -rv <relevant module> && modprobe -v <relevant module>" and look on the console as well as dmes. If you have a pinned down a bit what the problem is, then open a FS, if you are still lost feel free to ping me in #archlinux (I'm tomegun). Cheers, Tom
