I *think* that the hal, dbus, and policykit ports are the province of this list, am I right? I got referred here, for my problem, which is that I can't find any concrete example of how to configure this. I have read the tutorial on Hal and dbus, but I can find nothing at all to read on PolicyKit, excepting some things that are very very high level, with no conctrete examples of how to actually use it. What I'm looking for is any app whatasover that uses policykit, then any example at all which shows how to make that app work with hal, dbus, and policykit. Beyond that, I know that hal is supposed to ease things like automounting of CDs and DVDs, so i put in a DVD, and nothing happened, excepting I got this error message: Cannot mount volume Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied. Details: 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 "Mount" error name "(unset)" destination "org.freedesktop.Hal") I don't even know for sure what file is supposed to be the configuration file. Does anyone know any details about using these things on FreeBSD? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIYVGUz62J6PPcoOkRAnLoAJ4n/b6lLc6Dt5NozamGeLAC7KNtbQCgmESH h6njEsK/BMhFMjBLR99VE/k= =hFG0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
