I have recently upgraded one of my PCs to Slackware 12.1. When I insert a CD or USB device such as a 'memory stick', they are mounted satisfactorily. However, having not seen any formal 'instructions' on the use of HAL, I would like to ask a couple of questions here to check that all is working as it should be:
1.) When I insert a CD or memory stick, I get a window appear on the screen asking what I would like to do, for example 'open in a window'. Is this what should happen?.
2.) This is my FSTAB file:
Quote:

/dev/fujicam, /dev/wdusbdrv and /dev/corsdrv are symlinks derived from my custom UDEV rules.
Do I still need these in FSTAB when using HAL?. Also, should I 'comment out' the entries for /dev/dvd and /dev/cdrw?.
Thanks,
Bill.
