Mounting media devices under KDE has always worked well, but suddenly, I started getting a "Cannot obtain lock on /media/.hal-mtab" when trying to mount a device.
I tried to remove the file, but I can't, even as root:
[root@Bebop raziel]# ls -la /media/
ls: cannot access /media/.hal-mtab: Permission denied
ls: cannot access /media/.hal-mtab-lock: Permission denied
total 1
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 112 2007-11-20 19:51 .
drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 488 2007-11-20 20:50 ..
?????????? ? ? ? ? ? .hal-mtab
?????????? ? ? ? ? ? .hal-mtab-lock
[root@Bebop raziel]# rm -rf /media/.hal-mtab*
rm: cannot remove `/media/.hal-mtab': Permission denied
rm: cannot remove `/media/.hal-mtab-lock': Permission denied
And in the ls output, the name of the files are in blinking white over red background.
My root partition is formated on reiserfs, could this be a reiserfs problem? Any ideas?
