Put a line like this into the file /etc/hotplug/usb.distmap. The second num=
eric
argument is the vendor ID, the third is the product ID. The whole thing is
one line. It's probably easier to just copy one line that starts with the
driver name "scanner" and duplicate it, and then modify the vendor and
product IDs.=20

Red Hat 8.0 does have hotplug support, as does SuSE 8.x. I would assume
that pretty much all modern Linux distributions also come with hotplug
enabled.
