It is needed when you want to use hal. BTW, you also need python dbus in that case. If something is missing the fallback code will be used. I guess that needs some cleanup incl. warnings. And the hal code itself should move from the thumbnail subprocess to beacon main. > But I do not really understand how this is supposed to work in practice, for > example I can happily mount removable devices from within KDE via the media:/ > ioslave (and hal); I once discovered that this was done via a > program "halmount" in SuSE 10.2, but there does not seem to be anything like > that on my recent Gentoo systems (and IIRC it wasn't even in SuSE 10.3). I guess it _should_ be done using the dbus mount/umount commands. I can see them in the Introspect file but never got them working. If someone has some code example using hal to mount and umount, please help me here.
