You mean that by unplugging it and plugging it again it keeps the same label information? If yes I'm indeed unsure from where the caching would come from, lower in the stack there's nothing saving such information AFAIK. Am Dienstag, 6.

If you put in the same device with another label or without any label, it keeps the first time seen label of the device. So I guess, this information might be somewhere cached, but I am not so exprienced with it, to know where. Checked my whole ~/user directory, but could not find it. > If yes I'm indeed unsure from where the caching would come from, lower in > the stack there's nothing saving such information AFAIK. > Yes, me too, so I hope, the maintainers might know. Cheers Hans Ah forgot another question: Is Dolphin doing the same thing? Or only the device manager is impacted? No reply, the question was essential to proper triaging. (In reply to comment #4) > No reply, the question was essential to proper triaging. Sorry, I did not see your latest question. Please let me still answer though: Is Dolphin doing the same thing? Hmm, I do not quite know, what you mean. But I suppose, you mean, if Dolphin is showing the old label, too? No, it is not showing, just the hardwaremanager in the task bar. Or only the device manager is impacted? Yes, IMO it is only the device manager involved. Hope this helps, although my answer came back a little late. Should this bug be reopened?

Hope this helps, although my answer came back a little late. Should this bug be reopened? Best regards Hans Reassigning to the right component then. I'll have a look to see if I can reproduce. Stay tuned Here is what I can reproduce with the HAL backend: Insert an USB key labeled "foo" Plasma device notifier and dolphin both show "foo"; solid-hardware gives: udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_9202bc8f_3ab1_4cfd_afa9_03b088f27067' parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_Lexar_ExpressCard_3563BF05221737200407_0_0' (string) vendor = '' (string) product = 'foo' (string) Block.major = 8 (0x8) (int) Block.minor = 18 (0x12) (int) Block.device = '/dev/sdb2' (string) StorageAccess.accessible = false (bool) StorageAccess.filePath = '' (string) StorageVolume.ignored = false (bool) StorageVolume.usage = 'FileSystem' (0x2) (enum) StorageVolume.fsType = 'ext3' (string) StorageVolume.label = 'foo' (string) StorageVolume.uuid = '9202bc8f-3ab1-4cfd-afa9-03b088f27067' (string) StorageVolume.size = 4512972800 (0x10cfe8000) (qulonglong) Relabel it "bar" with e2label; both dolphin and the Device Notifier keep showing "foo"; solid-hardware gives: udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_9202bc8f_3ab1_4cfd_afa9_03b088f27067' parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_Lexar_ExpressCard_3563BF05221737200407_0_0' (string) vendor = '' (string) product = 'foo' (string) Block.major = 8 (0x8) (int) Block.minor = 18 (0x12) (int) Block.device = '/dev/sdb2' (string) StorageAccess.accessible = false (bool) StorageAccess.filePath = '' (string) StorageVolume.ignored = false (bool) StorageVolume.usage = 'FileSystem' (0x2) (enum) StorageVolume.fsType = 'ext3' (string) StorageVolume.label = 'foo' (string) StorageVolume.uuid = '9202bc8f-3ab1-4cfd-afa9-03b088f27067' (string) StorageVolume.size = 4512972800 (0x10cfe8000) (qulonglong) extract and reinsert the usb key dolphin and Device Notifier show "bar"; solid-hardware shows: udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_9202bc8f_3ab1_4cfd_afa9_03b088f27067' parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_Lexar_ExpressCard_3563BF05221737200407_0_0' (string) vendor = '' (string) product = 'bar' (string) Block.major = 8 (0x8) (int) Block.minor = 18 (0x12) (int) Block.device = '/dev/sdb2' (string) StorageAccess.accessible = false (bool) StorageAccess.filePath = '' (string) StorageVolume.ignored = false (bool) StorageVolume.usage = 'FileSystem' (0x2) (enum) StorageVolume.fsType = 'ext3' (string) StorageVolume.label = 'bar' (string) StorageVolume.uuid = '9202bc8f-3ab1-4cfd-afa9-03b088f27067' (string) StorageVolume.size = 4512972800 (0x10cfe8000) (qulonglong) I believe this is a solid-hal issue; will try with solid-udev asaic Turns out lshal doesn't notice the label change as well; so as for the report this should be definitely marked as UPSTREAM. @ervin: thoughts? This is a HAL bug Marked as UPSTREAM as suggested by ervin on irc. |
