89 +<body>
90 +
91 +<p>
92 +<c>ivman</c> is a tool that listens to hardware-related events. With this tool,
93 +removable media can be automounted and actions can be programmed based on the
94 +event type (such as closing a laptop's lid).

101 +<body>
102 +
103 +<p>
104 +To setup <c>ivman</c>, you should install it and then have it automatically
105 +loaded up on boot:
106 +</p>
107 +
108 +<pre caption="Installing and setting up ivman">
109 +~# <i>emerge ivman</i>
110 +~# <i>rc-update add ivman default</i>
111 +~# <i>/etc/init.d/ivman start</i>
112 +</pre>
113 +
114 +<p>
115 +The tool will mount removable media read/write for any user in the plugdev
116 +group, so add your users to that group:

132 +
133 +<p>
134 +If all your networks are nice enough to provide DHCP services, then you just
135 +need to set your interface to ask for an IP address. However, if you need to
136 +provide static IP addresses for a few networks, then you're out of luck: as
137 +networks don't provide an identification service, there is no way for a computer
138 +to know what network it is in.
139 +</p>
140 +
141 +<p>
142 +However, when you are using wireless networks, most of them do provide network
143 +identification using the ESSID. The <uri
144 +link="http://hostap.epitest.fi/wpa_supplicant/">wpa_supplicant</uri> tool allows
145 +you to pick wireless settings based on the ESSID. The Gentoo baselayout package
146 +allows for ESSID-specific network settings.
