[Bug 647404] Re: Udev worker error during boot "worker [XX] did not accept message -1 (Connection refused), kill it

[sctechlaw]

Ubuntu 11.04 upgraded from 10.10 on an iMac (powerpc). After the messages finish scrolling by I am dumped at a TTY login prompt. Can log in, but no GUI, am stuck in terminal. This machine has 1 GB of ram and a 7 GB hard drive. It has both Ubuntu and Lubuntu on it. Tried the commands above:
sudo -s
echo FRAMEBUFFER=y >>/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
update-initramfs -u

but no help so far.

  Udev worker error during boot "worker [XX] did not accept message -1
  (Connection refused), kill it

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: udev

  I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 with latest updates. I guess you see all necessary information from attachments.
  During boot, I get error message:
  "udevd[80]: worker [XXX] did not accept message -1 (Connection refused), kill it"
  XXX is number around 240, see the picture.
  I didn't find any information about that in logs, so I took a picture. I tried to google for similar bugs too but I didn't find any – I'm sorry if there are.
