>Description:
Not really a bug, more an integration request...
Since we don't have any "event deamon" under NetBSD, could this one be added to the base system ?
http://pluged.gnux.info/
It works only for usb, maybe it should be renamed. I agree we need something more generic with support for pccard etc... but while such a tool is missing, this one can do the job (And I don't think I have the skills to do a generic one, sounds complicated to get some informations).
I'm the author of this tool, the code isn't really complicated and if you want me to add things for this tool to be integrated (like man page), I'll do.
I use it quite often and it's a time saver, having this tool in the base system will help users finding this time saver ;)
