Well, udisks needs some rules inudev to be run to check if smart and similar things are available. If that fails tehn udisks will not be able to offer you support for these features. I mean, again, things mostly fail gracefully. If you consider "graceful failure" a synomym for "hey, this works perfectly", then well, be my guest... ;-) Lennart -- Lennart Poettering - Red Hat, Inc. _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
