Which is as it should be. I have only a meagre knowledge of GNOME and automounting but the cause of the changes in the permissions on the mount point could lie there. Comment out or delete the /dev/sdb1 line in /etc/fstab (why do you need it if GNOME is going to automount the drive?) Remove the directory /media/8eef3b99-c17b-4913-ae61-d34c7fd5d459. Use chown and chmod for /media/8eef3b99-c17b-4913-ae61-d34c7fd5d459 created by GNOME. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
