Hi,

I believe that it's the job of the hotplug system to do the links
dynamically from (openned)/dev/(usb|input)/device to /dev/device, like
cardmgr do for /dev/modem. The problem is that i don't see no ways to
detect where the devices has been openned. 

For example if i have a (usb) mouse and a (usb) keyboard, if i load
the mousedev and usbmouse i get the mouse working on :

/dev/input/mouse0

if i load before the keyboard i get the keyboard on /dev/input/mouse0 and after
the mouse on /dev/input/mouse1, so how could we get an information
where to setup the link ?

[Maybe it should be Cc'ed to usb-devel]
