ISTR that hotplug was removed, when udev was installed, because udev now includes the hotplug feature. Yep, I guess it does.... apt-cache show udev Description: /dev/ and hotplug management daemon udev is a daemon which dynamically creates and removes device nodes from /dev/, handles hotplug events and loads drivers at boot time.
