- KDE and media kioslave support
- ==============================
-
- The media kioslave, new in KDE 3.4, supports the automatic mounting of
- removable devices, such as CD-ROM and DVD drives, USB pen drives, digital
- cameras, and many other types of equipment.
-
- While some functionality is available without the use of HAL, media works
- best with HAL (and therefore udev), in combination with pmount. Media
- also extends the functionality of many other kioslaves. Check which
- packages are recommended by the kdebase-kio-plugins package, and install
- accordingly.
-
- Note that for regular users to use media in conjunction with HAL, they must
- be members of the plugdev group. (permanently, not through
- /etc/security/group.conf).
