Our discussion of the "hotplug scripts not working" error makes me extremely unhappy. Now that we're running into the bug, I really want to narrow down the cause and fix it.
Of course, this is "really want" in the sense of "except that I can't seem to concentrate on anything at all, ever. It's very disheartening.
Even so, I've been working on debugging the problem. Initially I thought that the hotplug subsystem wasn't working. Some work with udevmonitor convinced me otherwise. Now I'm leaning toward the idea that Xen isn't firing the right events for some reason. The machine's been up for a while -- domain IDs are in the 300s -- so that's a plausible cause.
Also, what's with that device number?
