Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: pm-utils
the hal-cd-polling hook script should disable the polling mechanism for
the optic units. It doesn't work on my sony vaio. In particular the
problem is in the following lines of the script:
local disks="$(for c in /dev/cd/*; do readlink -f "$c"; done |sort |uniq)"
[ "$disks" ] || exit $NA
In my installation I don't have any devices in /dev/cd/. I have two sym-
links to the effective device.
$ ls -la /dev/cd*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2010-10-02 12:20 /dev/cdrom -> sr0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2010-10-02 12:20 /dev/cdrw -> sr0
This behavior could be fixed, for example, in this way:
local disks="$(for c in /dev/cd/* /dev/cdr*; do readlink -f "$c"; done
|sort |uniq)"
[ "$disks" ] || exit $NA
