Hi! I submitted the following bugreport (bnc#717326): === The current Lanana devices list http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/device-list/devices.txt reserves sd* name for SCSI block devices, while USB devices should have name of the type ub*: USB block devices 0 = /dev/uba First USB block device 8 = /dev/ubb Second USB block device 16 = /dev/ubc Thrid USB block device But in openSUSE USB devices are actually assigned names in sd* range making automatic device type detection impossible or difficult. I faced this issue when making a patch for KDE3 that should detect removable media without hal and which is based on analysis of /proc/self/mounts entries. Thus the mtab backend thinks about USB drives as of hard disks. === It is actually interesting why USB devices are assigned SCSI-names, and should not they receive USB names. Another question is that it seems that even SATA and parallel IDE devices also receive the SCSI-name. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
