Indeed. BSDs (at least FreeBSD) have devd daemon, it's able to trigger some 
events when devices are connected/disconected. But it's unable to assign any 
properties to them. It is designed in the UNIX way -- a tool like devd should 
notify the world about an event, but it shouldn't know what should be done when 
this event happens :-)

As I know, hal is going to be replaced by "DeviceKit". Am I right that it's 
something tightly coupled with udev?
