Package: hal Version: 0.5.8.1-9 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch On a system like a ltsp server all users get messages like AddDevice when someone working directly on the terminal server, even if he or she is not in the plugdev group. This will trigger popup windows on KDE/Gnome desktops even on remote users who did not inserted the volume and surly don't want to work with.
Attached is a patch which solves the problem for me. Greetings Daniel
