I do not think it is a module.
I suspect hal probing of my iPod mini is what is keeping it busy (do  
not disconnect message - stays like that until a reboot) and I want it  
left alone by hal, I'm using autofs to mount/unmount it.

Not sure it is hal to blame - but I don't want it automounted in /media  
anyway. I'm not finding much hald documentation in google, and there is  
virtually no documentation installed in Fedora, at least not in /usr/ 
share/doc or a man page. Rather frustrating.
