Hi, thanks for reporting this bug.

IIRC it's a bug in udev but I can't find them.
I added the committers of udev in CC.

If I'am wrong, please tell me guys.

(Please set the status to 'assigned' if you are working on it)

Source RPM: tvtime in Alpha2 => udev ?

What is the output of 'systemd-loginctl list-sessions' ?
Comment 3 Magnus Rasche 2011-12-14 09:51:39 CET 
I will return back to home late in the evening.
Then I will look for the output.
Comment 4 Thierry Vignaud 2011-12-14 12:22:13 CET 
Also upgrade to the lastest udev & reboot...
Comment 5 Magnus Rasche 2011-12-14 21:58:45 CET 
Just updated my system and now tvtime is running.

There is a problem with the sound

"mixer: Can't open device /dev/mixer, mixer volume and mute unavailable"

but this is an other problem.

I think the bug is fixed.

Ugg, is tvtime *really* using OSS? It really needs to support PA or ALSA. OSS is dead.

At the moment I intend to use osspd for OSS emulation but there is a problem with ACL setting at the moment in this regard.

Oh and ass you say the bug is fixed, I'll close this bug.
