Description of problem: When root exited from KDE to console, hal umounts all volumes like /usr, /home ... It was done by hal script /usr/share/hal/scripts/hal-system-storage-unmount (detected by audit). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): hal-0.5.7-{6,7,8} How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. login as root 2. start KDE 3. exit from KDE Actual results: all volumes unmounted or remounted r/o Expected results: only hotplug volumes must be unmounted Additional info: missed test for 'IGNORE' in this script. patch is ready (near-copy from mount scripts).
Created attachment 129316 [details] patch to ignore fixed volumes
Patch is incorrect. This is a KDE problem. hal-system-storage-unmount just works like umount(1). KDE needs to only unmount volumes it mounted.
This pertains all kdebase version included up to F8. I fixed the problem recently (kdebase-3.5.8-26+), please report back if the problem still persists.
