Thanks for the explanation. Doesn't look like something I need worry about then. Slackware no longer ships Gnome, and I use Enlightenment WM which doesn't have icons.

Removing mount and unmount events Posted Feb 24, 2006 13:58 UTC (Fri) by hazelsct (subscriber, #3659) [Link] HAL is not a GNOME issue alone. It interacts with KDE, it's part of the Network Manager, it's in more and more user-space software. Think of it as a user-space mechanism for handling system events. Sure, you can pretend it doesn't exist, but then you will miss out on a lot of nice new functionality, not just having icons pop up when new devices appear.
Removing mount and unmount events Posted Mar 2, 2006 13:30 UTC (Thu) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] HAL is specifically for hardware-type events.
The system DBUS queue (which is used by HAL) is intended as the `all system events' thing.
