Hi,
how do I prevent the dvd drives from being polled by udisks-daemon? I
can kill the process and it becomes a zombie, and I'd rather get rid of
it.
This polling is something I really don't need or want! What else like
this is going on, and how do I disable it?
According to the man page[1], it should be as simple as (!) adding a
property to the device using a udev rule.
Apparently, yes --- but what rule or property is that? And how do I
disable it without rebooting? Udev stuff is a mystery, with
configuration that isn't readable by humans.
Googling the problem turned up this....
SUBSYSTEM=="block", ENV{ID_VENDOR}=="APPLE*", ENV{ID_MODEL}=="SD Card
Reader*", ENV{UDISKS_DISABLE_POLLING}="1"
Of course you'll have to make changes to match your CD-rom and where to
put the rule is a mystery (to me)...but it should get you started.
