[opensuse] replacement for ivman? (was: When is HAL going away?)
Anton Aylward wrote:
As long as one doesn't use GNOME, KDE, or XFCE, ivman was a nice tool to get automatic hot-plug mounts in these environments. AFAICS, ivman is not maintained any more upstream, at http://ivman.sourceforge.net/. Last update there was in 2007; dependency on HAL won't go away. Thus, I would say it's probable that one has to look for another similar tool in such non full-fledged desktop environments, if one doesn't want to do manual mounts there. Anybody knows of such a tool, i.e. one that is not HAL-dependent but uses udev/udisk, to issue user mount requests on plug events? Or shall one has to write udev-rules that issue pmount commands?

A replacement tool seems to be udisks-glue. udisks-glue is in the factory submission queue. Also in home:msmeissn for testing. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Ah, and also available for 11.4. Thanks for supplying that package; I'll give it a try.

Try without it first. The basic udisks daemon works fine or me. -- Ah, nostalgia ain't what it used to be. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I simply issued the zypper rm command that took out the list in my earlier mail, including ivman. 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 Maybe someone will be so kind as to recompile the KDE suite with the dependency for akonadi/nepomuk removed, then I can run a real lightweight system :-) -- If I had never thought about computer typesetting, I might have had a happier life in some ways. -- Knuth -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
