Well, just when I thought I had it figured out, I'm back on the bottom rung of the ladder. Andy says he doesn't install DBus/HAL and it automounts devices, you say it can't be done. Sigh.... Here's what Andy originally said that has sparked this discussion: > Gnome-VFS and Gnome-2.14 works fine > without HAL or D-Bus.

If gvm does the auto-mounting and it is dependent on HAL, and HAL is not installed, what is doing the automounting for Andy? -- Randy rmlinux: [bogomips 3993.32] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.2] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 17:40:11 up 18 days, 14 min, 4 users, load average: 0.27, 0.12, 0.07 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
