Hum, it seems to break the ipw2200 driver.  With the new udev package
the driver initialization fails with the following messages in the
log:

Jan 26 20:15:09 sawfish kernel: ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, git-1.0.8

Jan 26 20:16:09 sawfish kernel: ipw2200: probe of 0000:02:03.0 failed with error -5

Not sure why it complains about "no such file or directory", because
/lib/firmware/ipw-2.4-boot.fw seems to exist.  WLAN stopped working
after the upgrade, and started working again when I downgraded (only)
the udev package to udev-058-1.0.FC4.1.

Kernel is 2.6.15-1.1824_FC4, the firmware files come from the
ipw2200-firmware-2.4-0.lvn.1.4 package.  The hardware is a Dell
Latitude X1.
