Package: hal
Version: 0.4.7-4
Severity: normal

I'm using a firewire hard disk, which until recently was automatically mounted
whenever I plugged it in (I'm using gnome-volume-manager, btw) - it used to 
mount it under /media/<disk label>. 

Currently my .xsession-errors reveals this whenever I plug the disk in:

 manager.c/818: New Device: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/block_8_1
 manager.c/860: Added: /dev/sda1
 Error: invalid file system name ''


I checked the properties in hal-device-manager, and the volume.label was set to
an empty string, even though my sda1 has a ext3 disk label set to "backup".

I tried downgrading to 0.4.7-3, which made it work again. I tried to isolate 
the change that made it break, and noticed that using 0.4.7-4 with the 
/etc/udev/scripts/device-removable.sh from 0.4.7-3 made it work again.


Thanks,
