Yes, the problem was in kernel configuration.

If there are no dmesg messages when you plug the device in, it means it 
isn't getting detected by the kernel, so the hotplug message isn't 
getting sent.

This sounds like a problem with your USB kernel configuration (or the 
USB port you're plugging into) rather than hotplug/coldplug.

Make sure that CONFIG_USB_STORAGE is set to "y" in your kernel 
configuration.

Hi,
Think you should also check your kernel config (about hotpluging, etc.).
Using USB-2.0 flash drive with dbus/ivman and now with supermount-patch.
Have to change your fstab too.

Hi!
Hotplug needs to be in default since it supports hot-plugable 
devices in the current runlevel. In rare circumstances you may add 
it to boot as well. Coldplug in the contrary has to be at least in boot.

That's the theory. You said you had no success with it. What EXACTLY 
did you mean by that? What do you expect hotplug to do?

Only note about hotplug I found in the installation guide and I've did:
emerge hotplug
rc-update add hotplug default
without sucess :-\
Thanks a lot

Hi Heinz,

I want to use my flash drive for USB. When I plug the drive there is not
response within the USB (no dmesg info). I expect hotplug to enable ust after
the drive plug and creation of the /dev/sdaX devices.

Could you help me ???

Thanks
