There is actually a file system mounted on top of /dev that is managed by udev. If you look at /dev after booting form a live CD, you will see only a few entries - just enough to get the system started. How much HAL gets in the act depends on the HAL rules. There is a udev rule that tells HAL about every device that is added. It gets more complicated all the time! # pass all events to the HAL daemon RUN+="socket:/org/freedesktop/hal/udev_event" Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
