Thanks, I have it disabled. I asked tyhe question because of such 
messages during boot:

May 13 16:26:24 aapi205 udevd[1432]: SYSFS{}= will be removed in a 
future udev version, please use ATTR{}= to match the event device, or 
ATTRS{}= to match a parent device, in 
/etc/udev/rules.d/025_logitechmouse.rules:21

As far as I can see this is rather udev question. I don't know what to 
do about those messages. Can you give me a hint?

For now I upgraded udev to 154-1, I will see in the morning after I 
build new kernel if this helps.

Regards,

Piotr Hosowicz
