Yeah, this is exactly the bugginess (?) I was seeing when using the HAL that ships with Dapper. Everything looked okay with the config but HAL just wouldn't see it. Interestingly, it seemed to work whenever the Karma was plugged in at boot, but at no other time. Edgy seems to get this right, all the time. > The second partition gets the > volume.policy.desired_mount_point & volume.policy.mount_filesystem > correctly but not the volume.fstype and volume.fstype.

I also experimented with moving 20-rio-karma.fdi around (/usr/share/hal/... e.g.) but that didn't help things at all. > By the way, you put > <merge key="volume.fsusage" type="filesystem">omfs</merge> > in preferences.fdi and > <merge key="volume.fsusage" type="string">filesystem</merge> > in 20-rio-karma.fdi. I think the first one shouldn't be there right ? Hmm, yeah that looks wrong. I think HAL ignores non-policy keys in preferences.fdi. > manager.c/2630: Device > added: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_part2_size_19919976960 > manager.c/2403: no sensible filesystem > for /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_part2_size_19919976960 > > Bob, are these the problems you had with Dapper that got fixed by > upgrading to Edgy ? And could you send me the relevant parts of lshal ? Sure, I'll post the output of lshal later on. -- Bob Copeland %% www.bobcopeland.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
