Package: kdebase-kio-plugins
Version: 4:3.5.6.dfsg.1-2

I have finally made the switch, from hardcoded mount points in
/etc/fstab, to hal+pmount. It is very convenient and works well,
except for my USB floppy drive.

When I attempt to mount it, I get this message:

 Method "Mount" with signature "ssas" on interface
"org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" doesn't exist

However, from the command line, I can "pmount /dev/sdf" just fine, and
also "pumount" it. But unmounting via the icon on the KDE desktop also
fails with a similar message;

 Method "Unmount" with signature "as" on interface
"org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" doesn't exist

I would not be at all surprised if this is just a configuration issue
that is unique to my machine... but I have tried purging and
reinstalling hal and pmount, and I have tried searching the web for
possible solutions, to no avail so far. Any help would be appreciated.
Let me know if you need any additional information. Thanks.
