I had nuked it by hand because I couldn't get past it in the bootup about half the time, the other half wasted 2-3 minutes, and both ways made megabytes of errors in the logs. So rpm may think its installed (rpm -e wouldn't let me remove it), but its doubtfull & I should do a fresh install. Maybe this time it'll work right. 6 months to a year ago, it was IMO thoroughly busted. > If the hotplug package needs any special kernel > options, I guess you need in the kernel whatever hotplug needs. > For the redhat kernels, until the apparent current rawhide kernel > usb problems on -322+, hotplug just works. > >If your camera is empty, nothing should happen except a WAV will > play saying "camera empty".
