I have seen examples of udev rules using UDISKS_PRESENTATION_HIDE to prevent the auto-mounting of USB disks as they are attached. Rather than setting up a permanent rule, I would like to have a *program* do this on startup and remove the rule when it exits. How can I do this ? Do I need to manipulate the udev database and if so are there guidelines to do this ? I have seen references to sending messages on the dbus to org.freedesktop.UDisks but have found no documentation or examples. Can anyone give me some guidance on this ? I realize I could manipulate a /etc/udev/rules.d file and force the reload udev rules with "udevadm control" but that is really ugly... there must be a cleaner more direct way! thanks, Michael -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-hotplug" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
