Details

As of the latest big update to gcc4 et al, my ipod shuffle no longer gets automounted to /media/ipod which is where the hal rules are defined to mount it.
I am running gnome 2.12 with hal/dbus/gvm. GVM does not automount it at all.
I have to go into Computer and mount it from there, which then mounts it to /media/sda1 and all ipod apps expect /media/ipod.
For clarity, it is a usb flash memory based player.
Previous to the big upgrade it did get automounted by GVM to /media/ipod.
I checked /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-usb-music-players.fdi and ipod is in there, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.
This task depends upon

This will get fixed in the next release of hal. Currently the multimedia USB device detection is a little bit broken in HAL, changes are made to freedesktop CVS, so expect either hal 0.5.5 or a new hal 0.5.4 with backports from CVS. I think I need new code anyway to fully support gnome powermanager.

Ok, do you want to close this for now?
As a side note, I used this in the file I mentioned above to get it to work, only thing is that it mounts to /media/IPOD, no idea why caps but at least it works :)
