Hi, I read through the entire documentation, and saw a paragraph about
device signaling, which should allow you to for example automount cd's when
a disc is inserted, (or a shell scirpt methinks that will automatically run
cdp if it can't be mounted) 
However it gives no indication of how to set this up, merely referring me to
the devfs homepage where I found nothing.

I am writing an ncurses program to help people with the basic devfs
configurations, (e.g. ttysecure setup etc.) basically just running through
the doc's combined with what I myself experienced, asking questions where
things might be different etc. And I would like to add the ability to
configure some of these signalls, perhaps in a companion program if that
turns out easier. But I can barely do that untill I can figure out how it
works.
