For me the difference is that hwdetect is the only one daemon who have an extra option: MOD_BLACKLIST. No one other daemon have this. I like this option very much because it is easier to find than /etc/hotplug/blacklist.-) > Aside from that shouldn't hwdetect be provide in a nice tarball with a > manpage so everyone can use it? Sure if it comes seperatly: yes ... but if it comes as it is inside of the initscripts package than the comments in rc.conf are enough for the moment. Later a manpage or better a hint about using it in the installation manual would be very nice. I can understand that you have arguments against the way to integrate hwdetect but for me as an normal user it is like the whole rc.conf: simple but efficient.
