I don't want to spread FUD, but this is what I *think* gnome-vfs does in the absence of HAL. I think this because it was making my CDROMs available through nautilus before I was using HAL. I think that it reads in /etc/fstab and monitors those devices and directories for drives and volumes. I know there are parts of the code that read fstab, and there are definitely parts of the code that monitor volumes and drives. And it isn't all dependent on HAL. Only certain parts of the code are wrapped in #ifdef USE_HAL statements. Just a guess, though. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
