I was advised that we should update our init scripts on gentoo so that
if someone wants to restart udev we use --action=change on the udevadm
trigger commands when we restart instead of --action=add. I've been told
that will take care of the keyboard issue.

But, both people are reporting on the bug that they do not have a
/dev/dvd symbolic link after running the solution I suggested, and they
have posted the device information on the bug.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks,
