I need to start a service when this dongle is plugged to my system. This service uses tty (there are 4 tty (diag, cmd, data and for voice). So, i need to waiting the complete insertion of the USB dongle before launching it. For now, i'm waiting the last tty (ttyUSB3) event, sleep 1 second and launch the service. But i think my solution is pretty crap. Is there a better way to do this ? (I'm working with old architecture of hotplug: /bin/hotplug script which launch /etc/hotplug.d/${SUBSYSTEM}/ scripts...) Anthony.
