hald(1) and nautilus(1) does not automount media

[vermaden]

No matter what setups I have tried I am not able to get nautilus(1) to automount media with hald(1), thats strange since I have got working setup in the past ...

Below is my setup, config files, ...

Output of hald --verbose=yes --daemon=no command: http://pastebin.com/f330ca20f

dmesg(1) output with pendrive in: http://pastebin.com/f5bf9d125

Output of: gnome-mount --block --no-ui --verbose --hal-udi /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_DataTraveler_2_0

gnome-mount 0.8
** Message: Drive /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_DataTraveler_2_0 does not contain media.

During the output gathering, pendrive was connected (KINGSTON), then it was disconected, then, again connected.

All I want to achieve is to get nautilus(1) (standalone without GNOME) automount media with hald(1).

I have read HAL FAQ again and again but that still does not helps:
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/halfaq.html

PC-BSD 7.1.1 automounts media without any problems on that box, but nautilus(1) is no go, even after portmaster -r -p nautilus.

Thanks in advance for any input.

Hi Vermaden,

I checked your configuration (omitting devfs.conf as NetBSD doesn't have it) and it works- I can mount large volumes- I have 320 GB USB storage. Flip side of the coin is that under NetBSD I cannot mount CD's . But I can mount all USB pendrives, disks, SD cards etc.

You cannot mount CD's? music or data? only 1 kind can be mounted.. and it's not the former.

Hi BSDfan666,

I cannot mount CD's by hal itself. Of course by normal command mount- yes. If you know how to enable that under Gnome/Nautilus please share- we talk about NetBSD.
