Hi Greg,
Ok, let's say that we don't talk about my special case with T40.
Let's say that I don't even want hotplug event, but at least a mecanism
to tell to the kernel that it should rescan the IDE devices, or IDE bus
?
But I guess this is a question for another mailing list (like
linux-kernel) not for linux-hotplug.
In the past I've used hdparm -U / -R, but it does not work anymore for
kernel 2.6.x.
Thanks,
Paul
