I was wrong that one time, but then it turned out that I was actually right, and was wrong about being wrong. > Now there is devd instead of HAL. Which i know very little about. devd is used, or can be used, for keyboard and mouse hotplug detection in X. But it doesn't do the other stuff that hald did. Which shouldn't matter in this case, as xfce just used hal to detect hotplugged storage devices.
