[SOLVED] Udev error after kernel upgrade

I just upgraded to kernel 3.1.2-1 and I'm getting a strange error on boot.

 Loading udev user specified modules
udev[xxx] - specified group 'camera' unknown

But there isn't a camera group specified in /etc/group. I have recently had a usb camera plugged in which was working fine, although I don't currently have it plugged in and am still getting the error message.

Thanks in advance.

Is this the only error your getting? if so try creating a camera group?

Thanks en0. That was embarrassingly simple. Adding a camera group fixed the error message. I got distracted trying to work out why udev had suddenly started looking for it.
