+Halevt (HAL events manager) is a daemon that executes arbitrary commands when a
+device with certain properties is added to the system and when device properties
+change. Halevt uses HAL to monitor the state of your system's hardware. The
+design of Halevt is heavily based on ivman.
+
+Halevt can also report all the hal events that are emitted by hald
+(with the -i option on the command line). Halevt comes with halevt-mount:
+a program able to use HAL to mount, umount devices, and keep a list of
+devices handled by halevt-mount.
+
+Some of the examples require gtkdialog or Xdialog (SlackBuilds available)
+and alltray (not available yet for Slackware 13.0)
+
+This requires boolstuff.
