Re: [gNewSense-users] possible gNewSense kernel/memory issue?

[andrei raevsky]

Dear friends,

I just noticed that the problem only occurs with I log in as user "andrei" - other user accounts do not have he same problem.  I further noticed that my USB flash memory peripherals are not mounting automatically anymore.  I can still do it manually, but this GNOME convenience is now lost.

What do I need to reset/edit/correct  in my account config to have HAL initialized?

Should I reintall HAL somehow?

Also - my automatic updates are all completed, why does Rich say that 2.6.15.x is old?  Where and how should I get a newer kernel?

Thanks for any help,

Andrei

IIRC we patch hal, but it may only be the GUI bit.
you would have to check the SVN repo for more details.
