Hi,
There is a project that will show popup notification whenever new USB
device is plugged in.

I hope it helps

Dear users and developers,
Once up one time, Debian Squeeze and Espeakup would be used as device
autodetector. When visually impaired user has connected USB compatible
device, if device have been compatible with Linux kernel, with UDEV,
Espeakup have informed user about exact device type, its name.
My plea is as follows.
Does somebody know about GTK compatible app, which is able to connect
information when new USB device have been connected to The system? So
visually impaired users would help inside E-schops, where it is
necessary to pack devices. Because they would be able to know device
name, Believe me, that photo recognition services of objects will not
be too fast and will not be free of charge on future. And USB port and
kernel algorithms are very reliable.
It would be very interesting to find out, if ANdroid APIS can also
provide such information, because phones with Android would become a
handy device detection tool. Especially if USB HUB will be also used
to minimize micro USB connectors deterioration.
Who of you knows about GTK app, which is able to automatically display
if new USB device have been connected?
If Espeakup have been able to monitor kernel message, how complex
would be to fetch those messsages from Python? Because not every app
must be written in C or C+. It would be even possible to automatically
store device information to .txt file in plain Ascii format, every
device on separate line.
Please try to think about my idea.
