Plug 'n Play progress in Linux

Publication:O'ReillyDate:Jul 30 2004

Kernel developer and author Robert Love wants to take all the fun out of Linux. Someday you won't have to specify /dev pathnames to utilities when installing new devices, or configure CUPS and download a driver to make a printer visible, or determine which application can read data from a consumer device (unless you choose to do it the old-fashioned way). Instead, when you plug in something, it will just work, OS X style.
