I am running Red Hat 7.2 (Enigma) with kernel 2.4.7-10. I have installed usbmgr, usbutils, hotplug and modutils rpms. I am a linux newbie and the few howtos for usb cd-writers I have seen are a little dated. I'm confused. Should I use usbmgr to set up my USB devices or should I use the hotplugs. From the information I've seen, I think I have the USB modules already compiled into my kernel, but I can't be sure. The howto at

http://mobilix.org/linux_usb_cd.html

doesn't give information on using hotplugs, only usbmgr
and the linux hotplug web site does not have much documentation at all. I know my device is supported by my version of Linux.
Can anyone give me some helpful advice, please?
