Hello. I'm using the combination of hal, udev, and pmount on my laptop so that removable devices (usb sticks, an audio player, a camera) will be automatically detected and mounted when inserted.
All is working well, and I'm pleased with the improvement, but there is one way in which I'd like things to work a bit better. At present the devices are mounted in the /media directory, and the name used for the mountpoint is the raw kernel device-name: /media/sda1 /media/sdb1 and so on. That's fine, but I have written udev rules which create symlinks to /dev/iaudio for the audio player, and to /dev/micro for the Sandisk and so on, and it would be nice if those device-names could be used as the mountpoints: /media/iaudio /media/micro and so on. It doesn't seem like it should be so hard to pass that information to the pmount command, but I haven't so far found a way to do it. Does anyone know how to do this? I know that Gnome and KDE both have graphical utilities for handling this kind of thing, but I don't (want to) use either of those (I use fluxbox as my window-manager). Thanks very much for any hints or pointers, Jim PS This is Debian testing with a hand-compiled 2.6.17 kernel. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
