event handling - udev etc

[Adrian M. <ad...@ne...>]

Has anyone been able to build udev against uclibc on SH4? I cannot get
buildroot to compile.

Alternatively... some advice on event handling: I 'upgraded' my buildroot
setup last night as I was having problems with event handling in the
Dreamcast maple bus driver I am writing: the result was no improvement in
the handling of hotplug events by the maple bus driver (ie still crashes)
but now my sound driver fails because it won't handle the firmware load.

What userspace support do i need to get firmware loading/hotplugging to
work - what do people use in their embedded or near-embedded environments?
