I'm not sure what is required to have it show up on the desktop. Perhaps an update to 'hald' to adapt it to the new drivers. (But then, firewire-sbp2 simply adds and removes SCSI devices like sbp2 and any other SCSI driver for hotpluggable SCSI devices does. It would moderately surprise me if HALd needed extra care for each and every different SCSI driver.)
I don't have Ubuntu and I don't use 'hald' myself, I mount everything manually. I created /etc/fstab entries for the FireWire and USB disks which I use most often. I refer to /dev/disk/by-id/* symlinks in fstab, not to the ever-changing /dev/sd* files themselves. E.g. /dev/disk/by-id/usb-JetFlash_128MB_39680ADE3E2627FB-part1 /mnt/jf auto user,noauto,umask=0 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/ieee1394-0001d202e08500e7:000434:0000-part1 /mnt/igloo reiserfs user,noauto,noatime,notail 0 0 -- firewire hard disk only detected at boot process https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107322 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
