Re: svgalib /dev/svga(0-4) disappear on restart

Take a look at
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.games.mame.advancemame.user/3787

I had pretty much the same problem back then.  The problem is that
svgalib-devfs.sh is not being executed at startup (Though I assume you
did, as I did, put it in the /etc/udev/scripts directory).

My solution was to add the call "/etc/udev/scripts/svgalib-devfs.sh"
to the end of my /etc/rc.d/rc.local script.
