Given that I hardly ever use the CD-ROM drive, it makes no sense to have hal constantly polling it for new media.
How can I disable this polling in CentOS 5.1?
Run lshal and look for the block.device value that matches your drive. Then find the value of the info.udi key in the same block and replace it into the attached file. Then drop the file in /etc/hal/fdi/information and restart haldaemon.
