Ubuntu Breezy : udev does not set gid in dev-directory

Bug Description

After the start of the OS, the group rights for all IDE-devices are set to root.
Normally they should be disk or cdrom. Without this rights a user can't use the
GNOME-Volume-Manager correctly and can't burn CD-Rs.

The bug seems to be related to the file /etc/init.d/udev. When i comment the
lines 210 and 217, everything is working normal :

#if [ ! "$TMPFS_MOUNTED" ]; then --> line 210
   unmount_devpts
   mount_tmpfs
   [ -d /proc/1 ] || mount -n /proc
   log_begin_msg "Creating initial device nodes..."
   udevstart
   log_end_msg $?
#fi --> line 217

Without the comments, i have to start "udevstart" manually, to set all rights
correctly.
