Hello all
I am trying to write a python script which detects usb pen drive and
copy all the data into my home directory. After bit of searching , i
found these two links 1] http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Python_Programming/Dbus
and 2]
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/469243/how-can-i-listen-for-usb-device-inserted-events-in-linux-in-python
. I just copied the wiki program but after running it , i got error
import dbus
class BusListener:
def __init__( self ):
self.bus = dbus.SystemBus()
self.hal_obj =
self.bus.get_object('org.freedesktop.Hal' , '/org/freedesktop/Hal/
Manager' )
print self.proxy
if __name__ == "__main__":
obj = BusListener()
Traceback (most recent call last):
