Thanks for the patch, I've pushed it upstream (see
http://linuxconsole.svn.sourceforge.net/). I'll be preparing a new upstream
release (at long last) and an updated Debian package will follow.

Thanks, I'll add that to the documentation.

Actually the "right thing" to do seems to be to wait for /usr/bin/inputattach
to become available; see the /lib/udev/alsa-utils agent for an example. I'll
be adding a similar mechanism for inputattach.
