Ah, ok, so we can't do anything from userspace.
Yes, we will make uevents work with hal. I already added stuff to the recent
kernel to always send "change" events for media changes optical drives and
disks:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=...
(Seems it broke by other scsi changes/merges, I need to check what went wrong.)
The plan is to make HAL to only listen to "change" uevents. If the kernel does
tell us that it can do async events, or in your case that it polls itself, we
will not start polling from userspace.
