in this new knoppix (version 5.2 only in german ) version has Hal and udev been replaced by hotplug, etc??

or perhaps you can answer: why are hal and udev still being supported by knoppix when it is impossible to now get both these from the upgrade server?

save us a lot of time and queries in mucking with udev and hal, if this upgrade to hotplug is in fact the case.

or where is the package list for 5.2?
thanks.
