Public bug reported: Binary package hint: hal
Not sure, whether this is a bug or not. But latest hal package in hardy contains a file /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf which enables access to these items: <allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.SystemPowerManagement"/> <allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.VideoAdapterPM"/> <allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.LaptopPanel"/> <allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume"/> <allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.Crypto"/> only to root user (uid 0). If I change policy to my local user, things work (e.g. mounting devices). Apparently this policy: <policy at_console="true"> is not true even for the local user running X server (without gdm or any other xdm). I'd like to know whether this is a bug or I have only wrong settings. ** Affects: hal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- hal.conf for DBUS is too strict? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193431 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
