I have done a bit more investigations, and it seems that in mine installation the hotplug part is not working correctly. It doesn't reacts on plugging in external usb hdd, it doesn't mounts subfs stuff, and even a basic stuff like lshal, hal-device or hal-device-manager doesn't work dying with some strange errors like $ lshal lshal version 0.5.4 error: libhal_ctx_init: (null): (null) The most weird in this situation is that it is reproducible -- just today I have tried to reinstall it once more, without making any fancy choices in the installer and still got the same strange result. The only reason I can imagine at this point is a somewhat strange way I do the installation -- I have put a DVD-Eval distribution on my other machine and use a boot.iso from 10.0-OSS to start the network install on this one. But it sounds too crazy to be true. Am I the only one having this kind of problems? Where then should I try to ask to get help resolving it? -- Best regards, Alexander. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
