missing disk change notification in 2.4 kernels ?

[Peter L. Peres]

Hi all,

in 2.2 and earlier kernels, insertion of media into a drive would send a 
notification event to syslog. This does not happen anymore with 2.4 
kernels ? What is the equivalent option ? E.g. how do I cause media 
insertion to cause a hotplug or equivalent event in a 2.4 series kernel 
(preferrably without recompiling the kernel) ? I have looked into kernel 
documentation but no clues so far. I did not look at the source yet.

thanks,

Peter
