Now I tested "netplugd". The result is not verry promising: eudev logged the plug-event immediately, but netplugd sometimes took a break for 5 minutes ore more to detect that the cable was plugged in.
Eudev should react to the detection of the eth interface and create
the device. It isn't supposed to react to carrier detection (cable
connected). And, of course, the device should exist prior to
ifplugd/netplug to detect the carrier.
What kind of ethernet interface do you have? Is it some external
device connected through usb ?
