One of the nice things about udev is that you can look for the differences
in /dev when the device is loaded and when it is unloaded (at least for
usb devices), and those are the device files that relate to the device.
The usb devices are probably somewhere in /dev/scsi - when you find it,
you should create a custom rule to give the devices a descriptive name
somewhere.
I also had to manually modprobe sd_mod before my usb mass storage devices
(my digital camera) would show up. It seems that hotplug missed that
module. After I proved that worked, I put sd_mod in /etc/modules

I usually have a GPG digital signature included as an attachment.
See http://www.gnupg.org/ for info about these digital signatures.
My key was last signed 10/14/2003. If you use GPG *please* see me about
signing the key. ***** My computer can't give you viruses by email. ***
