Description Eric Piel 2012-04-16 20:47:31 UTC 
gnome-settings-daemon provides a setting to call a script when an (input) device is added/removed. See:
http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-settings-daemon/tree/plugins/common/input-device-example.sh

However, for now it's only called when a mouse or a touchpad is added/removed. Keyboards do not call the hotplug-command.

Keyboard plugin (or maybe the core?) should be extented to support the call of this command. Example code is already available in plugins/mouse/gsd-mouse-manager.c
