Summary: Solid crashes if HAL is not running
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
ReportedBy: aanisimov at inbox.ru
Version: (using KDE 4.3.4)
Compiler: GCC 4.4.2
OS: Linux
Installed from: Compiled From Sources
Solid expects that every linux system has HAL installed and running, which is
not true.
Components of Solid found in kdelibs look for SOLID_FAKEHW environment variable
and do not use HAL if one is found. Other components (found in
kdebase-workspace) can not be told not to use HAL (maybe I found no tuning knob
in the source?).
Making RPC calls to a nonexistent service is a bad idea especially when Qt 4.6
is used, which crashes when a RPC call is issued to an unavailable service.
