Hey all, I have a Pocket Zip aka Clik! drive from Iomega.  It is a
pcmcia sorta floppy zip disk type thing, it uses ide-cs.  Hal doesn't
recognize it at all.

If I open the hal device manager, it has the following to say about it.

In the tree view - Unknown Device
The advanced tab says
info.bus 	string		pcmcia
info.parent	string	/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_104c_ac1d
info.udi	string	/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pcmcia__1__1
linux.hotplug_type	int	1 (0x1)
linux.subsystem	string	pcmcia
linux.sysfs_path	string	/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/1.0
linux.sysfs_path_device string  same as above
pcmcia.socket_number	int	1 (0x1)

The device when ide-cs is loaded creates hde and hde{1,10}  where hde4
is always the mountable partition.  I have tried adding this to my
fstab, but it seems that hal doesn't even read that at all, anymore (not
using fstab-sync, using hal/pmount-hal/pmount/gnome-volume-manager.

Is this a known issue?
