Re: usbmgr and hotplug
I used usbmgr in the past and now hotplug ...
I had problems with slow machines (P200 non MMX) and usb printers with
usbmgr ... can't test with hotplug because I upgraded my server when I
did a complete reinstall :o/ .
hotplug is working OK for me ... but had to enable it if you are
building custom kernels.
