I've installed HAL and the same message comes up with the gnome desktop- an=
d this happens in the install of NetBSD that I also have- the HAL problem o=
f not being enabled or installed.
I may be wrong in assuming this; but, isn't there some basic compatibility =
between bsd systems that what would work for freebsd and mounting would als=
o work for netbsd?
chmod 0777 /dev/acd0 and chmod 0777 /dev/cd0a allows me to see the icons in=
 konqueror and nautilus.
sysctrl v allows me some access but full access is only as root.
I did a search for a command line that would help me set up HAL for both de=
sktops.
