Ok, so I have downloaded and compiled HAL from CVS today. I have a DVD-ROM 
that I'm trying to get working with KDE Media Manager, and trying to track 
down the issue. Can someone look at the output from HAL below for the UDI 
specific to my DVD-ROM and tell me if it looks correct and if everything is 
being reported that should be.

Questionable things are

  volume.label = ''  (string)
  volume.uuid = ''  (string)
  volume.fsversion = ''  (string)
  volume.fsusage = ''  (string)
  volume.fstype = ''  (string)

Shouldn't the above have some values? At least shouldn't volume.fstype be 
'udf' or 'iso9660' or whatever for the mounted volume? I currently have a 
Video DVD mounted and it's type is udf by HAL didn't report that in lshal.

lshal output below for the UDI in question.

Thanks.
