Hmmm ...  I know that udev is somehow connected with hotplug (which I 
got on my system, as I found out by typing ho<tab>) but this is about as 
far as it goes. Is there any way I can test whether it works properly? 
Also, might it be because I run uhci instead of ohci?

A single section doesn't work. With this entry X only starts if there's 
a mouse connected to the laptop.
