However, I'm using it under KDE, where your new HAL + libhal packages (or possibly something else) broke automounting media devices. Before the update, I was able to go to media:/sda1 (when using an USB pen drive or external HDD) and the device was automatically mounted for me. This does not work any more after installing your packages, and the error message is useless (Error - KIOExec: an unknown error occured).
However, 'pmount /dev/sda1' works just fine.
Several people in this thread have the same problem, but got no answer to their questions
Since you claim you only use Gnome, couldn't you find someone who understands KDE/HAL/NTFS to do some testing?
Otherwise it is not an improvement for KDE users, it's just a trade-off

- The 'unknown error' seems to mean simply that the driver is unmounted & it can't mount it. Were you able to mount an unmounted removable device using media:/ before. If not, we don't really have to care of this error (pmount is probably not default in dapper (it is in edgy)), it means simply that the drive isn't mount when plug.
- What's happens if you revert hal to the official version, but keep the patched mount ?
- What is the version of kde you use ?
givré - Hello. Thank you for your work here. I'm having the same problem as ZiZi. Using KDE 3.5.4. Just installed the 3g driver yesterday and I get the same exact error as described above when I plug in my ipod or usb stick. pmount-ing the device works fine. I did not see that anyone here having this problem posted any logs, so here is the syslog for the time when I plugged the device (ipod) in:

You can see there is a buffer i/o error occurring (whatever that is )
I assume that this has not been solved yet...
In the last of your messages that I quoted, you mention reverting hal to the official version. How do I do that? I've never had to revert back to a previous version of anything before. Having the automount work is more important to me that the ntfs support.
Thanks for your help!
