When should I call udevtrigger/settle?  The udev initscript (in
/etc/rcS.d) runs them after starting udevd, and by that time the
kernel has detected the devices.  I tried calling them again later
-- before and after the networking script and after the pcmciautils
script -- but with no success.  My udev debugging rule still
doesn't show any calls for pcmcia devices.

Thanks..
