Hmmm, on my distribution (gentoo), at least, the coldplug scripts use a
slightly different vendor id than the hotplug scripts (coldplug has a
leading 0). I don't know if it's a kernel issue, a module loading order
issue, or a cold/hot plug issue.
I just tweaked the /etc/hotplug/usb/wis-ezusb (supplied by plextor)
script to accept either, and everything (ie device cold, computer cold;
device hot, computer cold; device cold, computer hot; and device hot,
computer hot) works.
Here is a quick patch for the wis-ezusb that works for me (YMMV).
Just copy it to the directory:/etc/hotplug/usb (or wherever your hotplug
usb vendor scripts live), and do patch < PATCH_FILE. It's a pretty
trivial change (adds just 3 characters).
