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
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.
