Hi
I need to write a user application that detects Usb device ( disc or printer) insertion and removal
How to achieve that?
Does inotify allow to detect usb device insertion and removal?
Or is there others ways to do that ?
Any comment sis welcome

Hello, I think you can start
Hello,
I think you can start with udevadm application - just like that:
udevadm monitor
While you insert or remove usb device you'll be seeing messages from udev printed by this programm.
Then you can dig on your own how it's done in sources code of udevadm.
