As I repied to James a few minutes ago, my desktop system was originally (the 
now lapsed) Peanut Linux, which was a Slackware derivative. But I've been 
running it for 3 or 4 years, upgrading and adding packages along the way. My 
udev setup is based on that in a fairly recent Slackware, although I can't now 
recall precisely which version.
