Well, only the /sbin/hotplug mechanism is actually called "hotplug" and has direct kernel support. It's referenced in the kernel config help for CONFIG_HOTPLUG. All in all, I think it has more of a claim to being "official" than "usbmgr". Actually a key part of the idea was to get away from the need to have an extra daemon running all the time, consuming system resources. - Dave > Clearly there is only room for one, unless they are somewhat compatible, as a > developer I cant develop hotplug features for more than one hotplug handler > for my piece of usb hotplug device. > _______________________________________________ Linux-hotplug-devel mailing list http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net Linux-hotplug-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-hotplug-devel
