Package: hal Version: 0.5.8.1-4 Severity: normal
If I unplug a USB storage that is mounted, HAL gets stuck and doesn't respond to any more USB plugging events, even if the device is unmounted after that. It does react to the unmounting event itself, as well as events produced by plugging in a battery (this is a laptop). If the device is unmounted before unplugging, everything works fine. Restarting HAL enables it to function again. Killing the appropriate hal-addon-storage process has no effect. To summarize, the following steps will produce the problem: Precondition: HAL is working, with no automounter present 1. Plug in a USB storage, which should appear in hal-device-manager 2. Mount the device 3. Unplug the device Postcondition: HAL doesn't react to USB events anymore This might be related to #394019 and #292482, but since gnome-volume-manager is not involved and the latter bug is rather old, those offer no insight to fixing the problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages hal depends on: ii adduser 3.99 Add and remove users and groups ii dbus 1.0.1-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.0.1-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.71-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3.3 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libhal-storage1 0.5.8.1-4 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libhal1 0.5.8.1-4 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-2 userspace USB programming library ii libvolume-id0 0.100-2.3 libvolume_id shared library ii lsb-base 3.1-22 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii pciutils 1:2.2.4-1 Linux PCI Utilities ii udev 0.100-2.3 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo ii usbutils 0.72-7 USB console utilities Versions of packages hal recommends: pn eject <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
