I rebooted and am happily working in KDE without ivman or hal. And yes, my usb sticks and pc cards and usb mouse all get inserted and mounted.
No, Marcus, I've not needed to install udisks-glue. It seems the rules in /lib/udev/rules.d are quite adequate
As I wrote previously and emphasized now, ivman (or a similar tool like udisks-glue) was and is only needed when you don't use GNOME, KDE, or XFCE. In your situation, KDE takes care of personal automounts. This is well known and no surprise. I'm talking about installations where (1) no full-fledged desktop environment like the ones named above is used, and (2) personal and automatic mounts of inserted USB sticks are wanted. E.g., my notebook where I use fvwm2 and Emacs as desktop environment. ;-) Joachim -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Joachim Schrod Email: jschrod@acm.org Roedermark, Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
