Resolved: Re: /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug empty: how to configure kernel?

[Richard Wild <richard-wild@ntlworld.com>]

Hi guys,

the missing piece of the puzzle was that Hotplug isn't supposed to work 
on a 2.6.18 kernel. I didn't know that it had been removed in Linux 
2.6.11. I had to use Udev instead to make my camera work. Now it all 
works fine.

Thanks all,
Rich.

Greg and list,

I have referred Rick to a Slackware list - if we can't figure it out there, 
and it indeed turns out to be hotplug/udev-specific instead of Slackware, 
we'll come back.
Thanks,
RW
