Well, we had the per-user mount flags with gnome-mount. The predecessor of udisks (based on hal). gnome-mount could pass mount flags from the user session to HAL which would then apply them. That wasn't without problems though and so was removed eventually (or rather replaced by udisks). -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth? _______________________________________________ devkit-devel mailing list devkit-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/devkit-devel
