I'm not sure which section of the forum to post this. I am using a laptop so I am posting it here. I installed arch64 a few days ago. At first it seemed fine but after a few reboots it got stuck at "Waiting for UDev uevents to be processed". I looked at /etc/rc.sysinit and ended up changing:
/sbin/udevadm settle
to
/sbin/udevadm settle --timeoute=10
This sort of fixed my problem. Well it allowed the system to finish booting. Now the problem is that udevd tends to take up a lot of cpu. If I am doing nothing with my laptop the load average is always around 1.30. Killing udevd solves this problem. I think the issue might have something to do with my cdrom drive. Here is what I get when I run "udevadm monitor":

This goes on indefinitely. I'm not sure if something is wrong with the cdrom drive and the kernel keeps noticing some kind of change. I was using Slackware before this and never had any problems like this. I can paste some of the output of running "udevd --debug" if that would be helpful too.
Also my kernel version is 2.6.32-ARCH and the udevd version is 151-3.
Thanks
