On my machine, 2.6.20.1 often used to BUG when udev parsed the /sys directory structure. It looked like something was accessing freed memory.

And 2.6.20.2 is no better...

So it's back to 2.6.19.7 for me.

And 2.6.20.2 is no better...

Raise a bug / report it?

(FWIW it may be a driver problem: I just iterated over everything in /sys and read everything readable. No BUGs.)

And 2.6.20.2 is no better...

Can you please make sure you've filed a bug report
so we can track this issue?

And 2.6.20.2 is no better...

It's probably the same problem as this:
