I dont know what solid can do exactly. So ill just explain what opensync
would need:

OpenSync would need to monitor a variety of connection types like usb,
bluetooth, serial (if possible), irda and so on. if opensync detects a
device it would try to detect what type of device it sees exactly
(manufacturer, model, version, identifier). based on this information it
would lookup the device in a database to see what options are needed to
make the device work.

Do you know if solid would be capable of helping with this task? Another
issue: OpenSync is independent from desktops and X11. so it cannot use
anything that depends on such things.

Best Regards,
Armin
