I did some testing but think that this could be a problem. 11:47:39 r...@champaran:~/devel/Laptop-Mode-Tools/LMT-Main/usr/share/laptop- mode-tools/modules $ sudo hal-disable-polling --device /dev/scd0 Following symlink from /dev/scd0 to /dev/sr0. Polling for drive /dev/scd0 have been disabled. The fdi file written was /etc/hal/fdi/information/media-check-disable-storage_model_DVDRAM_GU10N.fdi 11:47:48 r...@champaran:~/devel/Laptop-Mode-Tools/LMT-Main/usr/share/laptop- mode-tools/modules $ sudo hal-disable-polling --enable-polling --device /dev/scd0 Following symlink from /dev/scd0 to /dev/sr0. Polling for drive /dev/scd0 have been enabled. The fdi file deleted was /etc/hal/fdi/information/media-check-disable-storage_model_DVDRAM_GU10N.fdi 11:48:04 r...@champaran:~/devel/Laptop-Mode-Tools/LMT-Main/usr/share/laptop- mode-tools/modules $ sudo udisks --inhibit-polling /dev/scd0 Inhibit polling failed: Media detection cannot be inhibited Is this a known issue ?
