I'm looking for people to test this small patchset for hal to look for
adverse effects. Ideally, these patches should be a big no-op for the
majority of users, but I want to make sure there are no regressions.
If you are going to test, first save the output of lshal to have a
control with which to compare. Then, apply the following diff to
sysutils/hal:
# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/hal
It should be:
# cd /usr/ports/sysutils
# patch -p < /path/to/hal.diff
# portupgrade -fOW hal
If you do notice a problem, please provide a clear problem description
and the before and after lshal outputs.
Some users may notice an improvement in the following areas:
* Discs formatted with non-ISO, non-UDF file systems are properly
detected
* Certain unsliced file systems (e.g. FAT, NTFS, etc.) are properly
detected (and mounted)
I'm not interested in general hal problems (though those _should_ be
reported). I just want confirmation that this patchset does not
introduce _new_ problems. Thanks.

I can test it this week when I am done w/ update my system. My system is
pretty out of date right now. I haven't update ports tree and installed
ports since GNOME 2.22 went in.
Cheers,
Mezz
