Hi, I've spent the most part of today getting KDE's automounting up and running, since it doesn't work by default: the "no support for HAL on this system". The first part was getting HAL and DBus running in general (bug #176).
The rest was in KDE itself. KDE-Base needs to be compiled with DBus-Qt installed: I'd like to add this to the dependencies by default, because it's really not obvious that that's the way to go about it. I'd also, though it may be too much, like to get that enabled on the 014 package. I think plugging in a flash drive is a reasonably common use case during install, and compiling KDE-Base right after install to get it isn't really on. DBus-Qt doesn't add any additional dependencies beyond what's already on the ISO. The next component was HAL itself. The default configuration, in /System/Settings/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf, denies access to anybody but root. I'd like there to be a plugdev group like other distributions seem to have and to have permissions granted that way. I think there's a pam_console module that could be used instead, but plugdev seems like the simpler way. All of that may be too much to make it into 014, but if it's possible I think it'd be a good idea. I certainly think they should be the defaults in the recipes for the future. Thoughts? Is there a reason things are set up this way now? -Michael _______________________________________________ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
