Zarkon has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello there, Can someone help me with this task: You know in Linux, that there is a HAL daemon who can detect when you connect new hardware to your system. Well i will use that, but i need to know when the device is connected. Is there a way to complete this task with perl. Is there a way to catch some kind of interruption or signal and to run the script to get the data from the connected device.
