same bug for me. But after investigation, I have found
DeviceDetection.py in the source. Here is the file :
import dbus
def get_compatible_devices():
devices = []
bus = dbus.SystemBus()
hal_manager_obj = bus.get_object("org.freedesktop.Hal",
"/org/freedesktop/Hal/Manager")
hal_manager = dbus.Interface(hal_manager_obj,
"org.freedesktop.Hal.Manager")
volume_udi_list = hal_manager.FindDeviceByCapability ('volume')
for udi in volume_udi_list:
volume = bus.get_object("org.freedesktop.Hal", udi)
fstype = volume.GetProperty ('volume.fstype')
mount_point = volume.GetProperty ('volume.mount_point')
is_mounted = volume.GetProperty ('volume.is_mounted')
is_mounted_read_only = volume.GetProperty
('volume.is_mounted_read_only')
device_file = volume.GetProperty ('block.device')
storage_udi = volume.GetProperty ('block.storage_device')
storage = bus.get_object("org.freedesktop.Hal", storage_udi)
drive_type = storage.GetProperty ('storage.bus')
# Check if it is a Mass Storage Device and we can write to it
if drive_type != "usb" or not is_mounted or
is_mounted_read_only:
continue
info_udi = volume.GetProperty ('info.parent')
info = bus.get_object("org.freedesktop.Hal", info_udi)
# Only accept N770 and Portable Audio Players
try:
player_type = info.GetProperty
('portable_audio_player.type')
except dbus.DBusException, e:
if info.GetProperty ('info.product') == "770":
player_type = "770"
pass
else:
continue
# Ignore iPods as they work differently than other Mass Storage
Devices
if player_type == "ipod":
continue
for i in range(4):
info_udi = info.GetProperty ('info.parent')
info = bus.get_object("org.freedesktop.Hal", info_udi)
product_name = info.GetProperty ('info.product')
devices.append( (product_name, mount_point) )
return devices
the instruction : fstype = volume.GetProperty ('volume.fstype') gave me
:
dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied:
Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_call",
sender=":1.112" (uid=1000 pid=7470 comm="python) interface="(unset)"
member="GetProperty" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0
destination=":1.21" (uid=0 pid=1762 comm="/usr/sbin/hald))
I think this is the point where syncropated crash and is not able to
detect devices. If someone more tuned with dbus can help ...
