           Summary: USB Camera Creates Broken Link To CD Writer
           Product: Ark Linux
           Version: 1.0 alpha9
          Platform: i586 (PC, Intel)
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Low
           Affects: Hardware Support
         Component: arklinux-release
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

Description of Problem: 
A Hot Plug icon appears when I attach my USB camera (USB Mass Storage Device), 
but is set up to use /mnt/cdwriter, which fails since fstab contains no such 
entry. Curiously, an identical Hot Plug icon is always available (before 
attaching the camera), and also points to /etc/cdwriter, failing for the same 
reason. 
 
Even more curiously, attaching *OR* detaching the camera causes auto-start CDs 
to fire-up (noticed this with the extra software CD in the drive). Yes ... 
curiouser and curiouser. 
 
 
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 
Alpha 9 
 
 
How Reproducible: 
Every time 
 
 
Steps to Reproduce: 
1. attach camera 
2. detach, etc 
 
 
Additional Information: 
The fault does not appear to be with the low-level recognition of the camera. 
This is what I saw in /var/log/messages while disconnecting, then reconnecting 
the drive: 
 
Dec 18 01:45:49 localhost kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:07.2-2 
address 3 
Dec 18 01:45:50 localhost default.hotplug: ======= START HOTPLUG FOR PID 16579 
======= 
Dec 18 01:45:51 localhost usb.agent: ==== usb.agent called with action remove 
Dec 18 01:46:12 localhost kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:07.2-2, assigned 
address 4 
Dec 18 01:46:12 localhost default.hotplug: ======= START HOTPLUG FOR PID 16903 
======= 
Dec 18 01:46:12 localhost usb.agent: ==== usb.agent called with action add 
 
Also, attaching the camera had no effect on /etc/fstab, which niether 
contained an entry for a USB camera, nor one for the imaginary CD Writer. mtab 
contains some lines which *may* be relevant -- I don't actually know what the 
purpose of mtab is. Just in case: 
 
usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs rw 0 0 
none /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw 0 0 
 
Finally, this bug is very likely related to bug 105, but is not the same 
thing.
