I'm running gentoo unstable, hal-0.5.4, dbus-0.36.2, pmount-0.9.3-r3 and Gnome 2.12 When attaching USB mass storage devices gnome-volume-manager mounts them correctly. Nevertheless they are shown as unmounted in hal-device-manager. Nautilus shows them as unmounted too. Same problem in konqueror. If I open media:/ konqueror shows the partitions as unmounted although they are mounted. I assume that hal misses to create a successful mounted event or something alike. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Some additional notes: Running dbus-monitor --system on a system where hal/dbus/pmount automounting works gives me the following: signal interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=PropertyModified; sender=:1.0 int32:2 string:volume.is_mounted boolean:false boolean:false string:volume.mount_point boolean:false boolean:false signal interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=Condition; sender=:1.0 string:VolumeMount string:/dev/sda2 string:/media/DATEN signal interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=PropertyModified; On my gentoo unstable Box I get this messages when I plug in usb mass storage devices: signal sender=:1.0 -> dest=(null destination) interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=PropertyModified int32 4 [ (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') .... I guess that's the reason why nautilus/konqueror don't get the correct mount status of the partition.
What are the settings for the system that this works on? What versions of Hal/dbus/pmount/gnome/gnome-volume-manager - also, could you attach the files in /etc/dbus-1/system.d/ to both systems?
Im running the 2005.1 profile.
