Hi,

Thanks for the explanations Duncan.  Yes RH have switched to udev for 
hotpluging.
>From the release notes:-

The hotplug and device handling subsystem has undergone significant changes in
Fedora Core 5. The udev method now handles all module loading, both on system
boot and for hotplugged devices. The hotplug package has been removed, as it is
no longer needed.

Support for hotplug helpers via the /etc/hotplug, /etc/hotplug.d, and /etc/dev.d
directories is deprecated, and may be removed in a future Fedora Core release.
These helpers should be converted to udev rules. Please see
http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html for examples.

The release notes also state that:-

The kernels for this release are based on Linux 2.6.16. Refer to the section on
the kernel in these release notes for other details.

However, the kernel on the distribution discs is 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5.  I am just
downloading kernel-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5 in the hope of some better luck.

Regards

Keith
