It was worth a try, but it didn't help in my situation.  This system
also has an updated Kubuntu partition available to boot, so I'll try
that and take lots of notes as far as what devices "udev" creates.
That approach was good enough to get my sound card working, which would
otherwise have required "udev".

Thanks.
