Comment 3 Daniel Reed 2004-09-01 19:36:24 UTC
I upgraded to udev-030-12 and initscripts-7.77-1 and am no longer
seeing either of these two issues. Additionally, gpm started working
again after the upgrade.

If you would like for me to help investigate what specifically may
have broken, I can downgrade components or try out new experimental
ones. Otherwise, feel free to close this.

Thanks.
