Subject: Where are block@... database entries?
Date: Wed, 07 Sep 2005 09:09:29 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <431EAE49.2000800@average.org> (raw)

I run slackware-current, which keeps pretty much up to date with udev
(currently comes with udev 0.64).  Since some time ago, maybe in Spring,
rc.udev/udevstart stopped creating block@... entries in the
/dev/.udev... database.  Now, only class@... files are created by udevstart.

As a result of that (I think), HAL does not recognize CDROM drive as
such, and do not poll it.  Consequently, gnome-volume-manager do not
automount an inserved disk.

On a system where there are old /dev/.udev.tdb/block@* entries lingering
since April, automount works.

Any advice/ideas how to make it work?

And BTW, I *think* that "udev_log" in udev.conf (and maybe other
entries?) should be uppercased.  This file is sourced into shell
scripts, and then the binaries such as udevstart check for enviroment
variable UDEV_LOG, in uppercase.  Do I miss something?

Thanks
Eugene
