I've just packaged up the latest Linux hotplug scripts into a release,
which can be found at:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3D17679

Or from your favorite kernel.org mirror at:
kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/hotplug-2002_08-26.tar.gz

I've also packaged up a Red Hat 7.3 based rpm:
kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/hotplug-2002_08-26-1.noarch.rpm
=20
The source rpm is available if you want to rebuild it for other distros
at:
kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/hotplug-2002_08_26-1.src.rpm

The main web site for the linux-hotplug project can be found at:
http://linux-hotplug.sf.net/
which contains lots of documentation on the whole linux-hotplug
process. There are also links to kernel patches, not currently in the
main kernel tree, that provide hotplug functionality to new subsystems
(like CPU, SCSI, Memory, etc.)
=20
The main changes in this release are the following:
- fix for USB hotplugging to search /etc/hotplug/usb/*.usermap

Here's the changes (and who made them) from the last release:
Changes from David Brownell
- load_drivers(): variables are local, and doesn't try
usbmodules unless the $DEVICE file exists (it'd fail)
- update hotplug.8 manpage to mention Max'patch
- patch from Max Krasnyanskiy, now usb hotplugging also
searches /etc/hotplug/usb/*.usermap

Changes from Fumitoshi UKAI
- etc/hotplug/hotplug.functions: grep -q redirect to /dev/null=20
closes: debian Bug#145484

thanks,

greg k-h
