Sort of. Your mail reminded me that this stuff doesn't get logged very well. In the past what I'd have told you to do is stop the HAL service and then run haldaemon manually with the options to make it run foregrounded and be verbose. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if that's what you do with DeviceKit too. David, help! What's the procedure in this case? What do you do when you want to see what devicekit's doing (and where it's going wrong)? -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
