You don't mention what kde version. |
14 |
|
15 |
kde 4.6.0 was the first to switch away from hal. If you're running |
16 |
previous to that, you need hal for detection. |

I don't know why (perhaps an issue with policykit or dbus interfering, or |
19 |
because I don't have device-mapper on in the kernel even tho udisks |
20 |
depends on lvm for device-mapper and asks for the kernel option as well?), |
21 |
but with 4.6.0, detection, at least for cd/dvd, didn't work here either. |
22 |
|
23 |
But, 4.6.1 suddenly started worked with cd/dvd at least (I've not changed |
24 |
kernel options, so I guess device-mapper isn't needed afterall, for that). |
25 |
|
26 |
Now 4.6.2 doesn't appear to be working, again, but I last updated a few |
27 |
days ago so maybe they've patched it to work again by now? |
28 |
|
29 |
I've not tried USB mass storage, so I don't know if that's working or not. |
30 |
|
31 |
But, I don't really care about auto-mounting here anyway, so it's not a |
32 |
big deal for me either way. If it works, it works, if it doesn't, it |
33 |
doesn't. I actually thought my config was screwed up for it, so I was |
34 |
surprised when it started working in 4.6.1. |
