If you are using kde I don't think you should be using ivman :-? - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

I didn't think so either. We had a thread earlier about ivman and udev. I thought ivman was replaced by undev, but then the device notifier didn't work before I installed ivman and did for a while after. When it was working at least the hal-addon-storage *WAS* polling! So: Do we need ivman if we have udev: yes/no ??

No, udev dos not replace ivman. They are different layers. udev is at the lowest level, hal builds on top of that. And on the top of that there is the device managment of the desktop environment (solid+device notifier for KDE) or ivman for systems without one.

You do not *need* it. But maybe you want it to do automatically device mounts and command execution for you, if there is no desktop environment installed. Herbert -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
