NOTE: Calibre requires Hal to be running for access to devices. The user who
|
|
is running Calibre also needs to be able to mount devices. For non-root users,
|
|
this means modifying %%PREFIX%%/etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf and adding the
|
|
policy there.
|
|
|
|
To allow a single user named "example" to mount removable devices, add the
|
|
following:
|
|
|
|
<match action="org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable">
|
|
<match user="example">
|
|
<return result="yes" />
|
|
</match>
|
|
</match>
|
|
|
|
Additional users will each need their own <match user="user"> block with a
|
|
"yes" return result.
|
|
|
|
To permit all accounts to mount removable devices (allowing a denial of access
|
|
attack) add the following:
|
|
|
|
<match action="org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable">
|
|
<return result="yes" />
|
|
</match>
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
In addition to the above, for USB and MTP devices the user needs
|
|
to be able to access the device node in /dev.
|
|
|
|
to be aware of USB devices attached to the machine, the user needs
|
|
to be a member of the operator group:
|
|
|
|
# pw groupmod operator -m yourusername
|
|
|
|
Then, add the following to /etc/devfs.rules, or create this file
|
|
if it does not exist yet:
|
|
|
|
[system=10]
|
|
add path 'usb/*' mode 0660 group operator
|
|
|
|
To load these new rules, add the following to /etc/rc.conf:
|
|
|
|
devfs_system_ruleset="system"
|
|
|
|
Then, restart devfs
|
|
|
|
# service devfs restart
|

If you are using an Android device as your e-book reader, please note
|
|
that the stock Google Books app uses a storage format that is not
|
|
supported by calibre. The calibre FAQ recommends that either of the
|
|
free apps Aldiko or WordPlayer are used instead.

A basic startup script for calibre-server has been installed.
|
|
|
|
It can be customized and configured using the flags described in the
|
|
headers of the startup script.
|
|
|
|
The command line options are documented here:
