Well, I extracted now the old udev from the knoppix where I took the 
kernel from. It puked on a couple of the rules from the new system, but 
there was enough in the system to allow me to mount the usb ports. And 
that worked. So, old kernel plus old udev plus new rules -> works. It's 
at least not the udev rules in my new system that are at fault.

I'm now trying the latest 2.6.31.xx kernel with identical configuration 
and check how that is going.
