mdev is capable of running programs/scripts when some event happens,
even after boot time. I've already used this capability to notify an
application when a USB input device is added/removed from the system,
or to trigger a system upgrade when a USB key is inserted.
However, if an application relies on libudev to get notifications of
devices appearing/disappearing, or other services, then of course, it
cannot work with mdev.
Best regards,
Thomas
