Hi!

I'm experimenting with udev, so that for example the display won't be dimmed when a usb keyboard is plugged in.
Dim time can be set with gconftool-2 bla..
And I have written an udev rule (very general at the moment) for an usb keyboard:

/etc/udev/udev.rules:
Code:
 BUS=="usb", SUBSYSTEM=="input", RUN+="/etc/udev/usbhid.hotplug"
The script is called, when a usb keyboard is plugged in, but not when it is unplugged. Does anyone know, why there is no "remove" event?
