yes that works, and is clearly the right solution - thanks a lot.

In debian unstable, who takes care of writing /sbin/udevsend
to /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug?

I'm running "ubuntu breezy badger" up-to-date as of today;

hotplug is 0.0.20040329-16ubuntu2-4.10ubp2
udev is 0.060-1ubuntu10

All the best,

Duncan.
