If you have entry in fstab, you limit udisks - also TDE chooses fstab entry
first. This is correct.
May be TDE could be updated so that when you have udisks in the mount
options, that it would prefer using udisks over fstab.

I guess "formalizing" this as feature request  will be more productive than growing this thread :)

Sorry, I installed NetBSD on new hard drive and I do not have access to my Linux hdd currently (there were only two sata power cables .. one goes into bluray writer/reader, other into hdd)

I am not aware of any TDE dependency on specific hardware. The compatibility
to the Debian system is driven by Debian. TDE supports the Debian version
as long as Debian supports this version.

And Debian versions come and go with its own set of restrictions .....


As for the rest Kaffeine for
example caused problems from the start to present. I am not aware that
some "local authority" did something on purpose to break something, but
honestly this is the reason I never liked or used it and I stick to
kplayer.

As far as I understood tqtinterface was merged into the main code ... what
old compatibility do you mean? You have to adjust the headers a bit and
recompile, which the devs are doing anyway for us.

Well, I think this is about infamous user/developer divide that failed to fail even with libre software. Software may be libre, but understanding it and rebuilding it locally often not really simple. Pushing changes upstream also not always work. You end up either doing A LOT of work, or swim with your distro's choices. I prefer Slackware exactly because it doesn't try to limit me from shooting myself into head with packaging/installing on my local machine. But even Slackware has limits of flexibility .....
