He asks why not do it like he > did it before for the vx interfaces. Another idea, after a closer look on the vxloader utility... Why not to forget hotplug for rbtload? using modutils instead, like vxloader does. quoting vxloader's README: For loading the firmware automatically after the module is loaded, use the post-install command. For example, add the following entry to /etc/modules.conf for VX222 driver: post-install snd-vx222 /usr/bin/vxloader We can use something like this for Tascam USB devices: pre-install snd-usb-us428 /usr/sbin/rbtload [...] In this way we can be sure that rbtload is executed *before* the module is installed. Of course, we still need to modify rbtload a bit, but it's not a big change. It is not necessary to use the hwdep infrastructure at all.
