USB automount is useful to me. It's good that you reported the issue and of course USB automount is useful. Andreas Wacknitz also confirmed this, and is trying to help as much as possible. Perhaps restarting 'hal' is a workaround. If I insert a USB mouse or USB storage device, and give hal a kick: root@wapper:~# svcadm restart hal then eject -l lists the usb storage root@wapper:~# eject -l /dev/dsk/c4t1d0s2 cdrom,cdrom0,cd,cd0,sr,sr0 /dev/dsk/c5t0d0p0:1 rmdisk,rmdisk0,USBSLACK I agree that it shouldn't be necessary to restart hal, but this could be a workaround. I use an old PS/2 keyboard and PS/2 mouse on my system, as the Dell Precision still has PS/2 connectors (in addition to the USB 3.2 ports),so I'm not affected by USB keyboard, but obviously all modern mice and keyboards are USB, and restarting hal maybe helps. Theoretically the SMF dependents are root@wapper:~# svcs -D hal STATE STIME FMRI disabled 18:19:30 svc:/network/device-discovery/printers:snmp disabled 18:19:31 svc:/system/filesystem/rmvolmgr:default online 18:28:36 svc:/application/graphical-login/lightdm:default root@wapper:~# svcs -d hal STATE STIME FMRI online 18:19:34 svc:/system/device/local:default online 18:19:35 svc:/system/filesystem/minimal:default online 18:19:37 svc:/system/sysevent:default online 18:19:37 svc:/system/dbus:default online 18:19:44 svc:/system/keymap:default Looking at the above I also note that I wasn't running rmvolmgr for some reason! root@wapper:~# svcadm enable rmvolmgr and voilĂ : /media/USBSLACK on /dev/dsk/c5t0d0p0:1 read/write/nosetuid/nodevices/hidden/nofoldcase/clamptime/noatime/timezone=-3600/dev=2ec1090 on Mon Jun 28 18:48:24 2021 Pardon my French (I'm Flemish) but automount is working for me ! If I remove the USBSLACK key it is unmounted. If I insert it again, it is not mounted, but root@wapper:~# svcadm restart hal root@wapper:~# svcadm restart rmvolmgr is doing the trick of automount. So this could provide a temporary work-around. David Stes _______________________________________________ oi-dev mailing list oi-dev@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/oi-dev
