I'm working on multi-user setups.
I'd like to be assign some resources - like a USB hub - to a seat and
have hotplug for that hub work only for that seat.
Currently, what happens is that a user plugs in a camera, and hal
reports the event. All of the concurrent gnome-volume-manager instances
then try to grab that resource, and what results is a mess.
consolekit has been suggested as a way to resolve this, but I can't
figure out how to use it.
googling around, I've found suggestions for using udev to limit access
to usb devices by creating a group that only has access to the usb
subsystem.
If I want to group some resources and only have those resources on
behalf of a specific user, and not any other, is there a way to do
that? Can I set up groups for hotplugging usb devices and set it up so
that the event is only reported to specific group members?
Thanks.,
