hal-0.5.4-1
dbus-0.50-2 gnome-volume-manager-1.4.0-1 dbus/hal are running via their init scripts and gnome-volume-manager is running via gnome-session yet plugging in new devices (ipod, pen drive) and putting in data cds does nothing. dmesg shows that they are being detected yet gvm does not mount them. If I run gvm *after* the devices have been inserted/plugged, then it will mount them but it otherwise it seems that gvm is not acting as a daemon. |

Reason for closing: Fixed
Additional comments about closing: Fixed with GNOME 2.14 from testing. Make sure you're in the storage group though, otherwise gnome-volume-manager won't show or mount volumes.

The bug still exists. Hal still reports my iPod as "iPo".
A follow up to the 'iPo' problem, using other hal utilities, it looks like this is just a display problem with hal-device-manager. The iPod still does not mount.
The setup which this is occuring is camera to usb (which works on my laptop with ArchLinux installed). When I do this on my desktop is when the problems happen. I get these errors:
...
> uba: uba1
drivers/usb/core/inode.c: creating file '069'
end_request: I/O error, dev uba, sector 4270
printk: 1297 messages suppressed.
Buffer I/O error on device uba1, logical block 4171
Buffer I/O error on device uba1, logical block 4172
...
from dmesg. Also, 5 pictures are copied over fine before the problem happens.
I am still unable to get automounting to work with any devices. This problem seems to happen with USB keys as well now (when it didnt used to happen).
Any suggestions as how to narrow down this problem?
Also, this same exact error was reported in ##gnome on irc.freenode.net by a debian user running deb unstable. Maybe ubuntu has some type of patch for it; if anyone runs ubuntu and would like to check, that'd be nice.
is not a big problem, pmount does its work well, but for sure it is a really boring problem :-)
