Is hald on FreeBSD working or has it the same conceptional bugs as on Linux? Hald on Solaris is based on the old vold support code in the disk driver sd.c Hald on Linux does it's own test unit ready and seems to do incorrect conclusions from state transitions. Linux in addition offers more than one driver entry for the devices that are able to send conflicting simultaneous commands. Hal in general is missing a concept for dealing with multi session writes. On Solaris, it wait until the tray is opened again after an empty CD/DVD has been inserted. What is the state on FreeBSD?
