https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=293433#c15 --- Comment #15 from Bernhard Kaindl <bk@novell.com> 2007-08-20 14:13:27 MST --- Created an attachment (id=158535) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=158535) add ntfs-3g to /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/20-storage-methods.fdi Ok, thanks, good critique. The attached patch for /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/20-storage-methods.fdi (which is the file where all allowed mount options are defined for each of the supported filesystems) adds support for ntfs-3g to hal by defining which mount options are to be allowed to the users. This does not cause that NTFS partitions are to be mounted using ntfs-3g, it only defines which mount options are allowed for ntfs-3g. Unfortunately, this does not work on its own because tools/hal-storage-mount.c checks the passed mount options against the mount options which are allowed for the fstype of the disk volume and not the requested fstype for mount. Without that change, the valid mount options for ntfs-3g work then they are added to the valid mount options for ntfs (found just above the place where this patch puts in ntfs-3g), which is what Ubuntu has done in early 2007 as far as I saw from an Ubuntu hal changelog. Danny, would you have time to discuss that issue in tools/hal-storage-mount.c and get a fix done? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
