Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
while installing my 64bit Gentoo on base on the configuration |
4 |
of 32bit system I came across the problem, that k3b did not |
5 |
see any devices. |
6 |
|
7 |
HAD was running, butL: When "hal-devices" was executed as user "no |
8 |
devices found" (none! not single!) was reported, while executing the |
9 |
same command as root works fine. With strace I found that this was |
10 |
due to permissions problems dbus has. |
11 |
|
12 |
I "fixed" this by removing a section (found by diffing a |
13 |
configuration of and old but working version of dbus) from |
14 |
/etc/dbus-1/system.conf, without really knowing the impact. |
15 |
|
16 |
Now "hal-devices" also reports to a normal user. |
17 |
|
18 |
I added both system.conf files for your information to this email. |
19 |
|
20 |
"org.system.conf" is the file, which was originally installed and |
21 |
which does not work. "system.conf" is the hacked one, which work, |
22 |
but which may do other things (currently unkonw to me) things wrong. |
23 |
|
24 |
What is the correct way to fix permission problems |
25 |
(or access rights) in conjunction with dbus the correct way? |
26 |
|
27 |
Thank you for your help in advance! |
