Can't you just shut down hald and see?
I might try that in the morning.
First I am going to try a different FireWire card, since I know of at least one other person with a mini who uses it in Fedora at least without reporting this problem - my FireWire is onboard A7N8X deluxe which I know was quirky before (module would load but not work) so maybe the driver in Linux isn't properly disconnecting - I have a Belkin card in a dead Beige G3 that I will try tomorrow and see if that works better.
Yep, I know. It's there however very well hidden: http://people.redhat.com/davidz/hal/0.4/hal-spec.html
Thanks!
I'll definitely look at that tomorrow as well.
I don't _want_ it mounting in /media even if trying a new card does resolve my issue with the disconnect - I want to use autofs because it's trivial with autofs to only permit certain users to mount (specify a group that is allowed to) - and then let gtkpod take care of the mounting when it launches and unmounting when it exits. And if I just want to charge the ipod, it doesn't need to mount at all.
