Hmm, I thought resmgr handles the permissions you have for a device like DVD-ROM etc., so it could give tools like "eject" the permission to umount a DVD. Ok, looks like I was wrong :-) > You can use dbus-send to call any method. For mount/umount there is > halmount (package ivman) Ok, that works, and my "eject" command now is some alias, calling halmount first and then eject. Thanks for that hint! I guess it would make sense to patch such a dbus-call into the eject-binary, wouldn't it? So that eject would work with ivman out of the box (I wish I was skilled enough to patch that myself :-)). cu, Frank -- Dipl.-Inform.
