Hm, I'm perfectly able to mount removable hard disks and cd-roms with
hal-0.5.8.x.
The only issue I could notice, is that in konqueror media:/ only shows
removable storage devices (with hal 0.5.7 it also showed non-removable
storage devices, local partitions).

In my case it only shows remote shares and removable devices (only usb tested), no local devices.

It is definitely an issue of hal, not konqueror or kde.

aptitude remove hal           <-- version 0.5.8
dpkg -i hal_0.5.7.1-1_i386.deb

followed by a reboot, no other packages changed, and voila, all storage devices are shown again.

Could you check the hal properties
 storage.hotpluggable
and
 storage.removable

I have on the not working
+++-==================-==================-====================================================
ii  hal                0.5.8.1-1          Hardware Abstraction Layer

# lshal
[...]
  storage.hotpluggable = false  (bool)
[...]
  storage.removable = true  (bool)
  storage.removable.media_available = false  (bool)
[...]

If they are both set to true, then hal sets
volume.ignore=true. So if this is the case, this could be your problem.

Sorry, I don't know how to set these.
