Bug#351685: udev storm: pcmcia CF adapter device file constantly deleted, recreated
I see this bug was moved to linux-2.6. However, there is also a udev bug
#350235 filed for the same problem. While it appears there is a major
udev component (the UI always gets the heat), it also appears to be a
kernel component as well since a kernel oops was reported. Since this
bug has been moved to the kernel folks, I suppose it will serve to track
the oops. I've attached the oops that I encountered after removing the
device in case it helps (which was followed by the system hanging after
reinserting the device--the reboot is indicated with the syslogd restart
line).
This is with a Dazzle 4 in 1 Card Adapter that I just got.
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=350235.
