Hello all, the "increase timeout" hack has been reviewed upstream recently, and is debated (rightfully, since it was just a workaround). Could people who were affected by this bug please test whether an alternative and better approach works for them as well?
I built a test package for 8.10 (intrepid, *not* for hardy) with Danny's proposed patch [1]. Please install it with: cd /tmp/ wget http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/tmp/hal-test-218834/hal_0.5.11-4ubuntu4+pitti1_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i hal_0.5.11-4ubuntu4+pitti1_i386.deb Then please check if your CDs are still recognized and automounted properly. After the test, you can revert to the original 8.10 package with sudo apt-get install hal/intrepid if you want. http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/tmp/hal-test-218834/ also contains the source package, in case you are interested. Thanks a lot in advance for your help!
