But hardly DVD+RW. On overwriteables you can freely mix read and write operations. I do not believe that hald interrupts background formatting. I would also expect from the specs that DVD+R and BD-R can stand hald interference. Both are allowed to have more than one logical track open and you hardly can manage them without intermediate inquiry commands. After system startup i kill the processes named hald-addon-storage. They are the ones on my SuSE 10.2 which quite reliably spoild CD-RW burns. I cannot agree to the opinion that a _modern_ Linux system could not live without hald. It is about the playfulness of the user interface and the incapacitation of its user. Nevertheless it is cumbersome to strip a SuSE Linux from all unnecessary automats. So one better selectively disables those which are known to make trouble. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to cdwrite-requ...@other.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
