That was "lshal --monitor" and "dbus-monitor --system" on a recent BE. Both of those commands produced no output. I know they work because I tried both of them on another system that was booted back to an older BE. There, both of them produced copious output, just as the support document showed. > The insertion and > removal does appear in /var/adm/messages, but goes no further. Here's what I saw on insertion of a USB stick: Jun 5 16:52:03 z400 usba: [ID 912658 kern.info] USB 2.0 device (usb951,160b) operating at hi speed (USB 2.x) on USB 2.0 root hub: storage@6, scsa2usb3 at bus address 3 Jun 5 16:52:03 z400 usba: [ID 349649 kern.info] Kingston DataTraveler2.0 0805050224383 Jun 5 16:52:03 z400 genunix: [ID 936769 kern.info] scsa2usb3 is /pci@0,0/pci103c,1309@1a,7/storage@6 Jun 5 16:52:03 z400 genunix: [ID 408114 kern.info] /pci@0,0/pci103c,1309@1a,7/storage@6 (scsa2usb3) online Jun 5 16:52:03 z400 scsi: [ID 583861 kern.info] sd9 at scsa2usb3: target 0 lun 0 Jun 5 16:52:03 z400 genunix: [ID 936769 kern.info] sd9 is /pci@0,0/pci103c,1309@1a,7/storage@6/disk@0,0 Jun 5 16:52:03 z400 genunix: [ID 408114 kern.info] /pci@0,0/pci103c,1309@1a,7/storage@6/disk@0,0 (sd9) online Jun 5 16:52:03 z400 genunix: [ID 127566 kern.info] device pciclass,030000@0(display#0) keeps up device sd@0,0(disk#9), but the former is not power managed Note that the messages show only "sd9" as the disk device name. This is the old-style name, one that is no longer used. /dev/sd9 does not exist. The "rmformat" command show the device name as: /dev/rdsk/c8t0d0p0 . It does exist, as does the block device: /dev/dsk/c8t0d0p0 . As far as I can tell, "dbus" sends messages to "hal" about the state of devices on the system. However, for insertion of USB sticks, this does not happen. I don't know why it doesn't happen. -- -Gary Mills- -refurb- -Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada- _______________________________________________ oi-dev mailing list oi-dev@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/oi-dev
