Oh, you can reference gvfs code for how to utilize devicekit-disks and gnome-disk-utility. But I still don't undertand how a software management engine deal with automounter. Can you elaborate on this with some examples? And by looking at code of HalContext.cc, there is one macro of NO_HAL seems created from config.h.in to disable hal at at all. So what function would I lose if I disable HAL from libzypp? And how to enable this macro? Sorry I did't know cmake. Peter

It uses it to disable and enable the automounter IIRC
And since HAL is in the process of being deprecated, do you have plan to use devicekit-disk to get same function?
I guess that may make sense in master/ , can you point us to the documentation of devicekit-disk (http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/DeviceKit/ does not have any details)?
