Yeah. I had the same message to. As far as i remember the device node was
constantly created during boot from a boot scripts (don't beat me i i'm

i got a new release of the restore cd that will fix the panel0/lcd issue.
i will have a look at this issue too.
i will give it a try tonight on my raq3@home.
