I'm not sure of how cardmgr and hotplug work together, but they do. I
have a Linksys A-G card (WPC55AG) that hotplug picks up and loads the
kernel modules just fine. Disable cardmgr and hotplug doesn't do
anything. This is on a 2.4.26 Debian kernel.
I did a bit of hacking with Hotplug and my USB camera and USB stick and
documented it at:

I have some more to add about my wireless card when a get a Round Tuit
(TM).
