I look into syslog after the last dist-upgrade (with new hal and pmount) and see this error 3 times:
"add_to_rules: invalid rule '/etc/udev/rules.d/050_hal-plugdev.rules:5'" The 5th line in /etc/udev/rules.d/050_hal-plugdev.rule is SUBSYSTEM=="block", ACTION=="remove", RUN+="/usr/lib/hal/hal-unmount.sh" Complete file: -------------------- # Have udev pass data over a socket to hal RUN+="socket:/org/freedesktop/hal/udev_event" # unmount block devices when they are removed SUBSYSTEM=="block", ACTION=="remove", RUN+="/usr/lib/hal/hal-unmount.sh" -------------------- I don't see the error. Any udev rules expert here? :) Thanks! Regards, -- Benjamí http://blog.bitassa.cat .
