1) Ok, this might also be avoided, by checking whether the hal-resmgr exists.
That's only one line more.
2) yes, if it's not installed, nothing happens. the callouts.add-script checks
that just returns 0 if it's not installed. Sure, adding a Format-Method in
addition to Mount Unmount and Eject would be the better solution. but that
would require more modifications in the frontends.
3) Yes. But only for build-in floppies.
Differences:
- <match key="storage.media_check_enabled" bool="true"> instead of "false".
USB-Floppies seem to have this enabled, as well as USB-Zip-Drives.
- <append key="storage.disable_volume_handling" type="string">true</append> is
required to avoid unexpected behavior with disks formatted with winXP or
mformat. As I said, I've only tested this with USB-Floppies. So I don't know if
might be also necessary on build-in floppies.
Btw: I don't expect you to add this stuff to your hal. It didn't work for two
years, now. Bugreports were always closed with "this must be a bug in KDE" or
"it works now". So I don't expect you to fix this anymore. I will do it by
myself. :-(
PS: I forgot to tell you: the mediamanager-patch also fixes a memleak. So I
will at least commit that fix to kde-svn.
