I just updated HAL with the option on myself and it seems to be working here for both my CD-ROM drive and my mp3 portable: /dev/cd1 on /media/cd1 (cd9660, local, noexec, nosuid, read-only) /dev/da0 on /media/da0 (msdosfs, local, noexec, nosuid) Perhaps one of the three daemons just wasn't running or there was a DBUS communication problem when you tried. -- ,_, | Michael Nottebrock | [EMAIL PROTECTED] (/^ ^\) | FreeBSD - The Power to Serve | http://www.freebsd.org \u/ | K Desktop Environment on FreeBSD | http://freebsd.kde.org
