In , Bill Wohler (wohler) wrote : udev: main: action, subsystem or devpath missing

Package: udev
Version: 0.068-2
Severity: normal

With my recent upgrade from sarge to etch, I began getting the following
syslog message:

  udev[1135]: main: action, subsystem or devpath missing

It seems to be related to one of my USB devices--my wireless
keyboard/mouse which does have a USB dongle.

If the problem lies in another package, would you be so kind as to
refile it for me?

Here is the syslog output when I unplug my wireless keyboard/mouse
USB dongle:

Sep 16 11:13:45 olgas kernel: usb 2-1: USB disconnect, address 2

Sep 16 11:13:46 olgas udev[18392]: main: action, subsystem or devpath missing

Here is the syslog output when I plug it back in:
