Automounter and volume manager based on DevKit

Hi there,

I've written a simple automounter and volume manager based on DeviceKit:

Some may find it interesting.

Currently it only manages media drives. I hasn't support yet for CDs/DVDs.

Hello, good job!

I was thinking of writing a patch for skvm to use DeviceKit. How does DeviceKit compare to HAL? any obvious deficiencies or whatnot? I've not looked into this at all yet. I'll look into the code to see if I can get any ideas smile

Hi! Thanks for your positive response!

I would say that for easy stuff they are similar in complexity to program with. DeviceKit, however, definitely wins in simplicity of architecture.

The current documentation is rather poor. You can check http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/DeviceKit/ (the reference manual) and the devkit program itself that comes with DeviceKit.

Nice coding! Report!
