Subject: USB devices do not trigger any response from hal - XFCE Package: hal Version: 0.5.11-8 Severity: important
Additional to bug #476260: I run XFCE. A few days ago, HAL stopped automounting devices which identify as USB mass storage. A card reader still automounts removable memory cards. Attaching a USB memory stick, or a Nokia which is identified as a USB memory stick, does not work. Running # hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes 2>&1 Results in absolutely no response when the USB device is plugged in. dmesg says: usb 5-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 11 usb 5-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice scsi11 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices usb-storage: device found at 11 usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning scsi 11:0:0:0: Direct-Access USBDisk RunDisk 1.00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 sd 11:0:0:0: [sdf] 2002000 512-byte hardware sectors: (1.02 GB/977 MiB) sd 11:0:0:0: [sdf] Write Protect is off sd 11:0:0:0: [sdf] Mode Sense: 0b 00 00 08 sd 11:0:0:0: [sdf] Assuming drive cache: write through sd 11:0:0:0: [sdf] 2002000 512-byte hardware sectors: (1.02 GB/977 MiB) sd 11:0:0:0: [sdf] Write Protect is off sd 11:0:0:0: [sdf] Mode Sense: 0b 00 00 08 sd 11:0:0:0: [sdf] Assuming drive cache: write through sdf: sdf1 sd 11:0:0:0: [sdf] Attached SCSI removable disk sd 11:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg5 type 0 usb-storage: device scan complete Mounting manually works fine. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.28.2 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages hal depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii dbus 1.2.12-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii hal-info 20090309-1 Hardware Abstraction Layer - fdi f ii libc6 2.9-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.12-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.80-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexpat1 2.0.1-4 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libgcc1 1:4.3.3-3 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.0-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libhal-storage1 0.5.11-8 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libhal1 0.5.11-8 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libsmbios2 2.0.3.dfsg-1 Provide access to (SM)BIOS informa ii libstdc++6 4.3.3-3 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-13 userspace USB programming library ii libvolume-id0 0.125-7 libvolume_id shared library ii lsb-base 3.2-22 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii mount 2.13.1.1-1 Tools for mounting and manipulatin ii pciutils 1:3.1.2-3 Linux PCI Utilities ii pm-utils 1.2.4-2 utilities and scripts for power ma ii udev 0.125-7 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo ii usbutils 0.73-10 Linux USB utilities Versions of packages hal recommends: ii eject 2.1.5+deb1+cvs20081104-5 ejects CDs and operates CD-Changer ii libsmbios-bin 2.0.3.dfsg-1 Provide access to (SM)BIOS informa Versions of packages hal suggests: ii gnome-device-manager 0.2-3 GNOME device manager based on HAL -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
