-ivman is a generic handler for HAL events. Originally for automounting,
-it can now be used to run arbitrary commands when events or conditions
-occur or properties are modified on your hardware (e.g., run a command
-when you close your laptop's lid, run a command when a particular
-device is attached or a particular CD is inserted, etc).
-
-ivman allows you to have automount feature even if you don't use a volume
-manager like KDE, GNOME, or XFCE includes. Just run ivman in the background,
-and if you're not root, be sure to also install pmount, which allows you to
-mount without being root and having the devices listed on /etc/fstab.
-
-NOTE FROM SUBMITTER:
-I've discovered a bug (possibly known) in ivman with pumount usage; since
-ivman doesn't have maintainer right now and I don't know where to report it,
-I'll explain here how to easily solve it. Note that this happens when using
-pumount as non-root; I haven't tried using ivman as root.
-It seems that when you remove a USB device without pumounting it (which ivman
-should take care of), ivman locks the device when calling pumount. This can
-be easily fixed by correcting your ivman's config files.
-Set in ~/.ivman/IvmConfigBase.xml:
-<ivm:Option name="mountcommand" value="pmount-hal '$hal.info.udi$'" />
-<ivm:Option name="umountcommand" value="pumount -l '$hal.block.device$'" />
