Description Mark Gordon 2005-08-29 20:19:50 UTC 
Up until beta3, submount mounted my iPod mini automagically when it was plugged
in.  As of beta3, it no longer does so; it remains unmounted until I mount it
manually ("mount -t vfat /dev/sda2 /media/ipod").  I'm having this problem on
two different machines (ThinkPads, an R31 and a T42p).

Same problem here - with all FireWire disks...
sbp2 doesn't get loaded automatically. After modload sbp2 the devices don't get
mounted by submount.

/var/log/messages 

that's /from boot until after the sbp2 was loaded manually. The fwdisk "Dicke
Berta" shows up on the desktop, but iPod volume doesn't.
It's also not in mount list.
message is a bit larger, because I'm hunting a problem with ieee and partitions
larger than 128GB...

I'm using USB rather than FireWire, FWIW.  Attachments to follow...

Comment 8 Jeff Stedfast 2005-08-31 18:10:55 UTC 
looking over the lshal output, we see that the ipod volumes do not have
hald-block-subfs added to the callouts list and so it is being left up to g-v-m
to mount the devices.

BUT g-v-m isn't able to mount them because there are no entries in /etc/fstab.
Comment 9 Danny Al-Gaaf 2005-08-31 18:42:38 UTC 
to #8: yes I know. This is a bug in HAL fdi-file (10-usb-music-players.fdi) 
which break the storage.policy keys completly by this change:

from:
<merge key="info.category" type="string">storage</merge>
to:
<merge key="info.category" type="string">portable_audio_player</merge>

I fix this in HAL cvs and for SL 10.0 rc1
