Hello all,

I would like to automate two steps in Linux when I plug in a wireless 
modem card into a PCMCIA slot.  When I plug it in, I need to run the 
following 2 commands for the card to be recognized properly before I can 
run the pppd command to connect:

#modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1199 product=0x0112
#mknod /dev/ttyUSB2 c 188 0

Is there a way to automate this by writing a udev rule so that whenever 
the computer sees the device, it loads the usbserial driver and maps it 
to /dev/ttyuUSB2? I seem to be getting the feeling that udev is the "new 
hotness" and hotplug is "old'n'busted" and is being phased out.
