I will look at the udev scripting. I don't need a GUI, yet. I will
just communicate with the usb device, check its files and if an
authorized software is found (will use asymmetric cryptography) will
load it.  I can write the software that will do the mentioned things.
I just don't know the hooking part. But udev is a good start. Thanks.
