OK, thanks... it turns out no hotplug package was installed nor nothing 
related to hotplug is found by the yast2 lookup, so i have installed 
hotplug-0.44-32.46 which is working for me on a sles9 system running 
kernel.org 2.6.16, yet the driver is not loaded on boot but does load 
manually (and works fine).

Do i need to setup something other then installing the package & reboot?

Or.
