Hey,
I've release gnome-mount 0.4, it's available here
http://freedesktop.org/~david/dist/gnome-mount-0.4.tar.gz
The grand plan with gnome-mount is to get the appropriate GNOME
software (such as gnome-volume-manager and gnome-vfs) to use this
instead of invoking mount(1)/umount(1)/eject(1) / invoking methods on
HAL directly.
Included in gnome-mount is also gnome-umount and gnome-eject. All
programs utilize the methods on HAL and as such run unprivileged. The
rationale for gnome-mount is to have a centralized place (in gconf)
where settings (e.g. mount options, mount location) are
maintained. Future plans include UI for editing settings.
Changes from 0.3
- Provide gnome-mount pkg-config file
- Don't block if putting up dialogs
- Error dialogs
- Allow pseudonyms for specifying device (Artem Kachitchkine)
- Can now mount/unmount/eject drives that HAL cannot poll
- Support for passworded media with gnome-keyring integration
- Experimental Nautilus extension (disabled by default)
- Resolve symlinks for --device
- Works when X is not available (includes password prompt)
- Lots of general clean ups
Requirements for gnome-mount 0.4
- GTK+ >= 2.8
- gnome-keyring >= 0.4
- libgnomeui >= 2.2
- HAL >= 0.5.7
- DBUS >= 0.60 (with glib bindings)
Cheers,
David
