Description Michal Jaegermann 2004-10-15 01:44:54 UTC

Description of problem:

Every time a USB scanner shows up on a bus I am getting messages
like those:

manager.c/712: New Device:
/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_usb_device_4b8_128_103_-1_noserial_0
libhal.c 906 : Error sending msg: No property info.capabilities on
device with id
/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_usb_device_4b8_128_103_-1_noserial_0
libhal.c 906 : Error sending msg: No property info.capabilities on
device with id
/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_usb_device_4b8_128_103_-1_noserial_0

Ample documentation makes abudantly clear how to get rid of that
(unfortunately not).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
hal-0.2.98.cvs20040929-3

Comment 1 David Zeuthen 2004-10-15 13:07:35 UTC

Hi, 

These errors are harmless, but it would be nice to get rid of them
though. I'll fix this in upstream libhal (not sure it will make FC3
though, maybe) so I'll close this bug as UPSTREAM.

FYI, the program that is emitting the messages is gnome-volume-manager
which uses libhal to get notifications among other things. 

Thanks,
David

> These errors are harmless ...

Thanks!  Good to know.  OTOH any "debugging noise" on a production
system is a bug in a making by masking real problems.
