I have been going through the trouble of adding dnotify to our 2.2
kernel because we don't want to switch to 2.4 yet. I wonder:
How many folks are interested in dnotify for 2.2?
Is it a really bad idea?
Is imon really dead?

For the base kernel its non interesting but if it serves your purposes

If you have KDE installed:
1) Open a file manager window
2) From a console, 'touch foo'
3) Watch 'foo' appear in the file manager window
4) From a console, 'rm foo'
5) Watch 'foo' disppear again
Unless you have FAM running, that's dnotify at work.
