Looks like udev is creating the device immediately, as it should. I'm |
| 18 |
pretty fuzzy on how the automounting actually gets done, though. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
I've noticed this puzzling situation on my own machines (which auto-mount |
| 21 |
correctly, BTW): |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
1929 ? Sl 0:04 /usr/libexec/udisks-daemon |
| 24 |
1930 ? S 0:01 \_ udisks-daemon: polling /dev/sdc /dev/sr0 /dev/sdd |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
And this as well: |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
1647 ? S 0:02 \_ hald-addon-storage: polling /dev/sr0 (every 2 sec) |
| 29 |
1648 ? S 0:00 \_ hald-addon-storage: polling /dev/sdd (every 2 sec) |
| 30 |
1650 ? S 0:00 \_ hald-addon-storage: polling /dev/sdc (every 2 sec) |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
So I have hal and udisks polling the same three removable drives at the same |
| 33 |
time, but they don't seem to interfere with each other. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
I'm using gnome with automounting enabled, so I'm pretty sure it's gnome that |
| 36 |
automounts those three removable drives, possibly with gdu-notification-daemon, |
| 37 |
which is part of the gnome-disk-utility package. A whole lotta guessing going |
| 38 |
on here :) |
