Description Manu Balasree 2006-01-11 06:13:48 UTC
Hi,

I have tried to start hal+dbus  with custom made scripts and docs given in README. It works fine, but usb device like flash drive and ipod are not mounted/detected. To make the icon for ipod appear in disk mount applet I will have to restart the pc with ipod connected. When i try to mount the applet i get the message ' /dev/sda1 entry not found in /etc/fstab'. The icon in disk mount applet remains even if the device is unplugged. Another user has reported similar problems but he says that the device is detected when halis stopped. Please make sure that this nagging problems is solved at the earliest.

The scripts i have setup for starting dbus/hal isworking and i has no problem mounting cdrom. only problem is with usb devices.

garnome-2.12.2.1
hal-0.5.5.1

Regards,

Manu Balasree
