With gnome-2.10 you were able to mount hotpluged volumes from the Computer window.
Not with gnome-2.12 as hal-fsync has been removed.
Attached patch changes things to the new way!

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open "Computer" window
2. Plug in a USB drive
3. Double click on the new volume

Actual Results:  
Mount error occours


Expected Results:

This enables pmount and full hal support.

This is the correct behavior as required for proper support. This goes along
with the g-v-m that I commited.

Additionally, here is a patch against gnome-volume-manager-1.5.1, that will use
pmount-hal and pumount if (and only if) they are available.  If they are not,
it will fall back to mount and umount, so the pmount DEPEND is really optional,
but guess it will by needed by this patch.

I would also vouch and ask pretty please for these .. sure im lazy =)

Hmm, Ok, I missed the changes to gnome-volume-manager-1.5.0, as I'm running
1.5.1 here, but I think this will be the better option, especially if it can go
upstream?

Better one, as it uses the glib api instead of access().

Slight typo, sorry.

And an ebuild for gnome-volume-manager-1.5.1 compaired to 1.5.0, will look
something like this.

Took the Gnome herd too long to do this... So I did it.

[Comment 9 Stefan Jones (RETIRED) 2005-09-11 07:10:18 UTC]

To compile gnome-vfs-2.12.0.ebuild you need orbit-2.12.4.ebuild ( As they have
reintroduced ORBIT2_MAYBE_CONST define )

I have added the orbit-2.12.4.ebuild
