Bug#332222: kdelibs4c2: kde constantly polls my harddrive
Package: kdelibs-bin
Version: 4:3.4.2-4
Followup-For: Bug #332222
I have noticed the same problem - flashing of the hdd led (approx. 3
times/sec). I traced it down to kded. I used strace on kded and found
the reason to be the following:
strace -f -e trace=open,close,read,write kded
[cut]
[pid 29040] open("/dev/dvd", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 16
[pid 29040] close(16) = 0
[pid 29040] open("/dev/dvd", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 16
[pid 29040] close(16) = 0
[pid 29040] open("/dev/dvd", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 16
[pid 29040] close(16) = 0
[pid 29040] open("/dev/dvd", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 16
[pid 29040] close(16) = 0
[pid 29040] open("/dev/dvd", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 16
[pid 29040] close(16) = 0
[pid 29040] open("/dev/dvd", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 16
[pid 29040] close(16) = 0
[pid 29040] open("/dev/dvd", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 16
[pid 29040] close(16) = 0
[pid 29040] open("/dev/dvd", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 16
[pid 29040] close(16) = 0

You get the idea. It's trying to open the dvd device all the time. If I
comment the /dev/dvd line in the fstab it starts without a problem. Here
is my fstab line:
/dev/dvd /cdrom auto user,noauto,ro,utf8
I think the bug should be reassigned to kdelibs-bin as kded is there.
