Hello,
i need to start an application that is on a USB device, as and when it is
plugged in . This application has a curses based User Interface.
I am able to start the application ,using hotplug, but anything started by
hotplug seems to run in the background. And this would make the curser UI,
not visible.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks

It's a problem as hotplug runs from the kernel directly, with no stdin
or stdout. I don't think you will be able to do this easily.
Sorry,
