KDE-Forum.org

I am running FC4, which has hotplug, hal, etc, to enable auto-handling removable media. When I first put in my flash card in the card reader, it (to my elation) popped up a window asking me what to do. I elected to browse the device and clicked the box to "Always do this". Now when I plug in a card, it pops up a file browser window, just like I asked it to. Cool! Except now I want to do something different. How do I change it? Also, where is the setting stored?

FC4's KDE comes configured with autorun (or maybe it's left over from FC3, I don't know) to handle insertion of CDROM's and DVD's. I disabled that with the hope of getting KDE to handle them but no response, now, when I plug them in. How do I get this enabled, too? Thanks!

Thanks for pointing me at the control center. Now I am having trouble getting it to do what I want it to do. It seems to always mount the DVD, weather I want it to or not. What I would like is for Xine to play the video DVDs when they are inserted, KSCD play the audio disks, and konqueror window open for data disks. I'm betting it is possible, since it does distinguish between disk types and can launch applications, but the handling is wierd. I keep getting KIOExec error, "/media/cdrom is a folder, but a file was expected" when I select the option I set up to play with Xine (just "Xine" as the command to execute). Other wierd problems, too. I'm concerned I might have old settings (FC3) mixed with new (FC4) since the system was an upgrade. Suggestions welcome.

THANKS, nbd! That bit about it always sending the url is priceless! Explains a LOT!

Now that we've got that out of the way, where is this stuff stored? I would like to add some system-wide options so I don't have to add this for each user. Any hope? Are these settings just cloned from the default user environment for each new user, or can I change system-wide settings that will affect all users?
