[Breezy] Urgent: latest upgrade causes the Xserver to fail !!

[Shot - Piotr Szotkowski]

Hello.

So don't use the developement version, or at least don't
upgrade the preview until the stable version is released.

The X Server is stable, it was udev that broke. The preview (in the
package selection that was released) is quite stable; you might consider
suggesting that the preview should not prompt for upgrades until the
final version is released, but I doubt it would be easily implementable.

> Does any one know how to fix this ???

Either downgrade to udev 0.060-1ubuntu12 or run
sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
after each reboot: http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15932
