[Bug 115768] Re: hald not parsing policies under /etc/hal/fdi/policy on kubuntu feisty
I tried, but that doesn't solve the problem. The policy is still ignored. I suppose you intended to fix the permission problem when automounting with the default ntfs driver, but that didn't work either on my laptotp. nuu -- hald not parsing policies under /etc/hal/fdi/policy on kubuntu feisty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115768 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 115768] Re: hald not parsing policies under /etc/hal/fdi/policy on kubuntu feisty
Yes, I am sure. In my case, it's an external 40gb 2.5 USB Disk, with only one partition on it, formated as NTFS. The policy contains precisely the data I pasted in my first post. The partition automounts finely using the ntfs-3g driver. I only have the ntfs-3g and ntfs-config packages installed, from the official repos. I don't have pmount installed. If you need any more infos, just ask. nuu -- hald not parsing policies under /etc/hal/fdi/policy on kubuntu feisty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115768 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 115768] Re: hald not parsing policies under /etc/hal/fdi/policy on kubuntu feisty
I believe we are discussing two different problems here. The error you get is indicative of the absence of polkit, as you correctly observed, and it is an error I get even without ntfs-config (and I thought about reporting it at the time, but eventually forgot about it since i could fix the ntfs-3g automounting as of my first post, and after that it slipped my mind). This bug report is about the ntfs-config (and supposedly any other) policy file not being parsed under the /etc-based hal policy directory tree. If you move that very same policy file under the /usr/share-based hal policy directory tree, the policy kicks in as soon as you plug the device in, and the ntfs partition gets mounted flawlessly and instantly. From your output, it looks like you have the ntfs-config policy file under /etc/hal/fdi/policy. What happens if you issue a sudo mv /etc/hal/fdi/policy/20-ntfs-config-write-policy.fdi /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor ? On my system, that gets rid of the polkit-related errors, and as i reported in my first post, mounts the partition finely, using the ntfs-3g driver. nuu -- hald not parsing policies under /etc/hal/fdi/policy on kubuntu feisty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115768 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 115768] Re: hald not parsing policies under /etc/hal/fdi/policy on kubuntu feisty
excuse me if I insist, but something's still unclear to me: why does the absence of polkit impair hal's ability to parse a perfectly valid path, such as /etc/hal/fdi/policy, for policy files ? And why does hald cache get invalidated but the policy skipped altogether ? I still don't get it.. nuu -- hald not parsing policies under /etc/hal/fdi/policy on kubuntu feisty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115768 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
