Hi, Joe,
I'll find some time in the evening or over the weekend. I have to dig it out from wherever it is -- fortunately I think I know where.

Hi, Joe, Sorry to be the bearer of not so good news but--- 1. Inserted old memory card & got an appropriate icon 2. I can read from and write to the card That's all good. When I tried to unmount (right mouse click on icon) I get: [Unable to unmount "64M Volume":
A security policy in place prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient, see message bus configuration file (rejected message had interface "org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member "Unmount" error name "(unset)" destination "org.freedesktop.Hal")/quote]
It appears that I'd have to be root to unmount.

That is not the vl-hot icon then. It does not use hal at all. That must be hal showing that icon. If so, you should get 2 icons on KDE and 3 on XFCE, the hal icon and the vl-hot icon, plus the vl-hot unmount icon which is exclusive for xfce.

Caitlyn, are you using GNOME by any chance?

No, Xfce 4.4.0. I should point out the 4.4.0 was built with hal if I remember correctly.
OK, the VL-hot isn't giving me an icon at all.

OK, I unmounted as root and the icon remained. I removed the card and it disappeared.
I reinserted the card and got three icons: two from vl-hot plus the one aforementioned icon.
The vl-hot unmount icon works correctly. (Joe, when did you add audio cues?) The hal icon remains but the two vl-hot icons disappear. I remove the card and the last icon disappears. I reinsert the card and I get three icons.
The card was inserted when I booted up this time. It seems vl-hot doesn't provide icons for items that were in place at boot.

I think an Xfce build with HAL disabled might be in order  Hal is probably interfering with VL-Hot's work. Honestly, I don't know why the Xfce dev team shoved Hal support into Xfce 4.4 at the last minute like they did...  |

Is someone working on building Xfce 4.4.1? I was going to try it but I don't want to duplicate efforts.

Vec7 built it.
EDIT: OK, doesn't seem to be in the 5.8 repo, but it is in the VL6 dev isos. So maybe a 5.8 package isn't done yet?

I installed the no-HAL XFce 4.4.0 plus Thunar and xfprint on my test machine today. What's different compared with the versions that come with VL 5.8 Standard Gold?
In the spirit of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" I won't install 4.4.0 on my other two systems unless there is some advantage I don't know about.

The version that was on 5.8 gold didn't (doesn't) depend on the Hell-demon either, that was a last minute addition to Xfce 4.4.0 IIRC. I'm not sure what the advantages of the newer versions are over the version in 5.8 standard. |

The version that was on 5.8 gold didn't (doesn't) depend on the Hell-demon either, Indeed not, but it was the last release candidate, not the final. "Hell-demon", nice word-play... that was a last minute addition to Xfce 4.4.0 IIRC. Yes, because it was somewhat hard to build without hal, IIRC. I'm not sure what the advantages of the newer versions are over the version in 5.8 standard. If you mean hal, neither am I...  but it is the final and had some bugs removed, I guess. |

If I encounter a bug, I'll install no-HAL XFce 4.4 on my other two computers. Until then, I think I'll stick with what I have unless I notice something on XFce 4.4 on the one desktop that's not in the older version included with 5.8 Standard Gold.
Either way, it seems no harm would be done.
